[ROOT] virtual SetBit

Hi,

why are the BitManipulators in TObject not virtual? Like the kBitMask it
might be usefull to overwrite this function with an own one which
doesn't allow to set or reset a user defined bit (let's say I'm useing
BIT(14) to flag some state which I don't want to be changed by the user,
I could simply ignore the bit when the user calls SetBit)

Best regards,
Thomas.
