This actually wouldn't really change all that much. We'd still need an application to detect the safari launch and load our bundle. The only thing we wouldn't need is to be setgid procmod. If someone wants to attempt it, I'd say go for it. What's there works well enough for now and there are plenty of other problems elsewhere that need our attention ;)
