I have a test installation where I am generating custom reports of case activity.  I am grouping them by user, so naturally, the Person::CanSeeCases property was an ideal test to see if I should display that user or not.  However, it is always returning false, even though I have verified that the user in question can see the cases in the list.  Am I misunderstanding the purpose of this property?

Hmm, no that sounds like a correct application for it, but it's possible that the logic is wrong when querying it for someone other than the current user.  I'll take a look.

In the meantime, you're most likely okay just checking person.PermissionLevel >= PermissionLevel.Normal. 

The only edge case that CanSeeCases catches is where permissions are set up so that a normal user can't read ANY projects, which is pretty rare.
