[Zenja Solaja] True multi-user systems (ala Unix servers or
similar) where you can have multiple users logged in simultaneously is a bit
of an overkill for desktop systems. I'll assume that a majority of desktop
users want file based security, ie. restrict who can access which directory.
For families, this allows dad to hide pictures from the kids, and it also
prevents the kids from stuffing up the /system directory. R2 shouldn't have
any problems with file based security, since BeFS already supports
permissions.
