"Objectively" is very strong, but I'd love a tool like this.
Except it's so thoroughly invasive and ripe for abuse that I can't imagine ever using something like this that isn't open source and thoroughly vetted. And I think your very valid points are stemming from that -- MS's implementation was hamfisted and halfassed, and people don't trust them even if they do it correctly. But those are issues with the implementation and the implementer, in my mind. Not the conceptual feature.
