Yes, let's remove all the bibsched task authentication checks while keeping the optional user name argument in place. Invenio installations that are interested in regulating access to CLI bibsched tasks can simply switch to using regular Unix ACLs for this purpose. (E.g. we already do so for non-bibsched-task Invenio executables such as `dbexec' that are potentially even more dangerous than bibsched tasks, hence more in need of potential ACL restrictions.)
