Well, an ASSERT is supposed to assert something. If it get's triggered,
there's obviously something wrong. Putting an ASSERT that is known to be
(potentially) triggered defies the purpose of an ASSERT. For example it
doesn't make sense to ASSERT that a usermode caller doesn't pass a
certain flag. A BSOD is not the solution to currently mot having
implemented something. A DPRINT1 will do just fine (if we finally
stopped DPRINTing all sorts of crap, creating MBs of debuglogs that
noone can analyze, and instead added DPRINTs in places where it actually
makes sense </rant>)
So the ASSERT should be replaced with a DPRINT1.
