I understand the rationale, but in this case, at least with regard to the
permissions grid, we have an example of a control which exceeds the designed
width. That would probably need addressing as well.

Other UIs, e.g. MySQLWorkbench (not that I'm citing that as an example of best
practice, but certainly an example of one current practice), proposes a grid
control with vertically organized choices (tick box), rather than horizontal.
