This is not a surprise. The developers here are really deaf to good
solutions. Because, they are used to workarounds and they will not
address any kind of good solutions.

Storing the user_privileges in source file is the worst *workaround* I
have ever seen. And the solution suggested by Adam looks really good.
But we need to pray to almighty to get included in upstream.

AFAIK, vtigercrm is no longer qualified as a community project. It's
Open Source, but the developer's priority is always the On-Demand
stuff and they patch(don't expect a diff, only over-writing) the
so-called community version when they have *time*.

My personal experience:
Months back, I proposed a plan to clean the code and conform it to
PHP-5 standards. But none of the developers were interested. The
result of the non-conformity in code is visible if you run vtigercrm
with log_errors/display_errors enabled in php.ini.  You will surely
get a 2GB log file if you use vtigercrm for about 3 hours.
