Willie:

Yes.

That's the point of (1) having it as a "special" authority and (2) naming it 
*ALLOBJ -- "ALL" object.

Special authorities should only be granted when you want a profile that won't 
be hampered by related authority restrictions, and in fact can't be hampered by 
them. There would be no point to *ALLOBJ if you could turn it off for selected 
objects; it would no longer be "ALL" objects.
