How about I rephrase and say the engineers at ZenOSS have wmi collection working as a completely unprivileged user. It required several changes as things were hardcoded to require the "Administrators" group in the winexe binary itsself. The same problem likely also affects core but should be fixed soon. Winsvcexe was a bit unnerving, but you can look at the code and see it is harmless.
