This is not correct. As of the switch to Commons Daemon 1.2.0 around the middle
of last year, Tomcat uses "Local Service", not "Local System". This can still
be changed, e.g. via Tomact9w.exe, if required.

We previously looked at providing an option to select a user in the installer
under bug 55969. The conclusion then was that the work required did not justify
the benefit given the change to "Local Service". That doesn't mean that a patch
to provide that feature would be rejected - quite the opposite - just that the
committers are likely to have higher priorities.
