    .SYNOPSIS
    Grants a user permissions on an MSMQ message queue.
 
    .DESCRIPTION
    If you want users to be able to access your queue, you need to grant them access. This function will do that.
 
    The rights you can assign are specified using values from the [MessageQueueAccessRights enumeration](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.messaging.messagequeueaccessrights.aspx).
 
    If your queue is private, make sure you set the `Private` switch.
