Comment(by axeld):
There is a point for this for root users, though, since they can just
write to write protected files. Normally, editors issue a warning for
this, but this has to be specifically coded everywhere.
A handy getter wouldn't be too bad, but that should probably be end up in
BStatable, and should get a better fitting name.
