Hmm.. do we need to worry about the same DoS issues we need to worry about with mlock and friends? I know I can trust myself to not do stupid things to said flags on my laptop (well... not twice anyhow ;). On the other hand, I have systems with clueless users, and the even more dangerous half-clued users. And then I have a bunch of machines in our security lab, where Bad Things happen all the time...
