Hmm...

Maybe instead of having built-in default privileges, we could view
each user as having their global default ACL pre-initialized to that
same set of privileges (of course we needn't store it unless and until
they modify it).  Then they could add to those or take away from them,
plus add additional privileges at other levels.
