That was a different proposal. The disadvantage was supposed to be that
it wouldn't work with scripts that change uids in the whole filesystem.

But it's a waste of time to discuss how this should work, if the main
justification for it is incorrect speculation about Redhat's needs.
Donnie Barnes told me that install-time uid configuration was fine.
