Point of the interview should be to asses knowledge and thinking process, and many other things. Definitely, it is not easy, as in one hour someone needs to assess that person is not faking his entire working history, and that has acceptable skills for the certain role. One of the good interviews I had was with few people DB/Architecture/Testing/Coding at the end they had combined overview. Usually when I am interviewing I would allow everything, as I am more interested in thinking process of attempting to solve something than actually giving me some clever solution in extra limited time. For me it is interesting that many companies have decoupled skills vs. money paid for those skills expectation, and often they would like to have star workaholic developers but only if they could pay them as McDonald employees. What I am trying to say, don't have an interview like you trying to employee in Google if you are are not prepared to pay those people like the Google.
