The idea kind of was to mix it up, so people will know what it does. I noticed that you and other people already declare the user switching technique half dead. It's a brilliant idea, you know. Because of its simplicity. It's even patented. By referring to the Apache executable I give the technique the glory and attention it deserves. So most people are thinking 'Capabilities' nowadays... Sigh. This will only steer admins away from finding out how user switching works and applying it. Instead they will just run entire server processes as admin-users. Sincerely, Daniel
