I've written a patch to let deluged and deluge-web be started by root and
then switch UIDs (and GIDs). The main reason for this (for me) is so they
can write a pidfile (specified at the command line) as root and then
switch to regular/lower privileges.
I also cleaned up the forking in deluged (before ever looking at the
deluge-web source) and then saw that it was done in this much cleaner way
in the deluge-web daemon.
