Isn't it even a bigger problem?  The only purpose of having the authority is to 
issue the commands that require the authority.  What prevents such an 
authorized user from issuing commands that make other users privileged?  Or 
create a new user account with privileges that is not so restricted to this 
application?  Or changing the access controls on APF libraries?  Or even 
turning the security system off?

How do you prevent the user from using split screen to invoke
another application while your app is active?
