There are still one or two remaining issues to make factor work in
multiuser environments.
It's close though, here is one of the issues tracking it:
https://github.com/slavapestov/factor/issues/495
Part of the problem is when a user runs "save" (since Factor is
image-based, this saves the users environment and loaded vocabularies), it
writes to the $factor installation directory currently.
