I think it's actually a neat feature.

- As Don Seiler says, it gives you an element of control over what the
database is connecting to. It is good to know and understand the interfaces
that are being used.

- When the developers ask for something to be opened, it gives you the
opportunity to discuss their approach to make sure it makes sense. On
numerous occasions, once I probed a little, I've found they are using a
totally inappropriate solution. If they had not had to initiate the
contact, we would have implemented sh*t. :)

I never do a blanket open all ACL (exception on my play VMs).
