To avoid this, the utmpx APIs could communicate with a privileged daemon
if the files are not readable. The daemon can check the identity of the
caller via getpeereid(3).

Any privileged daemon is much bigger threat. Also, do we really want a
daemon running all the time just to be able to parse utx files?
Well, if you think of it, it's not a very strange idea:

It's long been a wish of mine to have an ability to decide at boot time that a
system should boot in console-only mode. That is, that no graphics/X
applications like e.g. xdm/kdm/gdm are automatically started even when they are
