Personally, I am very interested in questions like this.  They help improve
my auditing abilities, whether it is specific methodologies I can use to
compromise a client's box before the bad guys do, or whether the answer just
sparks an idea that I find interesting.

Either way that is what F-D is all about.  The only BS I don't like on this
list is when those kiddies are stupid enough to open their mouth instead of
lurking and learning like I did on the BBS's and newsgroups of my younger
days.
