It doesn't and I'll argue all day that it won't help you a bit.

Here is an example:
1. running system with OMGACL
2. pkg_add -ui
3. couple of days later at 3am bzzzzz got come to the datacenter because
   the app bombed
4. oh, the acl terminated it; adjust
5. repeat 3 - 4 until it "works"
6. repeat 2 - 5 in perpetuity

- or -

1. Disable ACL.

BTW, microsoft implemented every single ACL type mechanism the NSA ever
made public.  Tell me again how well it worked for them.

Show me an admin that isn't lazy and I'll show you a liar.
