Actually, this problem is part of a whole scope of problems that were in
the Berkeley code, because rules, and inheritance, just have a certain
contorting effect on SQL queries where it is difficult to get them
working properly.
If these features didn't come from Berkeley, I doubt we would have ever
implemented them, so in some case there are inherited bugs from features
that weren't 100% thought out when they were added many years ago.
