Needless to say, permissions and authentication is a feature set that
is going to re-requested for addition now and in the future. It opens
the door for someone to create a memcached variation with such a
feature set - anyone?
Please don't. Please nobody even think of doing that. Really. Don't.
Authentication, at least, has been in the community memcached release
for the last two micro releases:

If you need security labels and such, running separate processes would
seem to be the way to go. Of course, security labels can also be
applied to network traffic, meaning that the authentication features are
redundant. :)
