      The user is allowed to run operations on namespaces used to back btree indexes, for example test.foo.$id. These namespaces do not contain bson, yet mongod may attempt to read/write bson from/to them resulting in invalid bson errors and potentially memory corruption. We should prevent the user from accessing these namespaces directly.
