TLDR: The group assignment fix in Mojolicious 5.53 did not work out, and 
you should now be using Mojolicious::Plugin::SetUserGroup.

Yesterday we've been made aware that the user/group assignment feature of 
all our built-in web servers was still not working correctly. This is not 
very surprising, considering the lack of tests, but unacceptable for what 
was supposed to be a security feature. So we've decided to remove it from 
the Mojolicious core distribution.

There are multiple alternatives available.

1. Mojolicious::Plugin::SetUserGroup

2. Using a reverse proxy

3. iptables port forwarding
4. Linux capabilities

While there is a possibility that this feature will return in a future 
version, we will first have to make sure that it is absolutely rock solid 
and 100% tested, which is not easy.
