The database-level can be a bit heavy-handed. In our application, our
security scheme on SQL Server is dead simple. All users are added to
a group, and that group is granted execute access on all stored procedures
and select access on most tables.

Then our database includes tables to control access to application
functions, and also access to which accounts and customers a user may
see.

True, our system started its life in the days of 4.x when the permission
system in SQL Server was far less sophistcated than today. But since
our securable entities are not SQL Server entities, I can't see how
SQL Server could help us, even if we were to make a complete restart.
