This was implemented in http://trac.sagemath.org/ticket/15732 because Sage 
needs to write to some files in .sage, I believe.  So it is really raising 
a better error message than before, but I don't think Sage will work if 
they do not have write permission *somewhere*.  Someone can elaborate if 
that is not quite correct.

Another possibility is to use a snapshot image for each desktop or 
something - that is what some admins I know do, though I confess I do not 
know how that works.  Maybe your situation is not a lab.
