I don't personally want to provide such an option because I consider it
prone to abuse. 

Specifically, I don't know who (other than the human operator) should be
allowed to direct Rainbow to exercise such a code-path _and_ I don't yet
know how to reliably measure the human operator's intent that the
program be launched in that fashion.

Since I am confident that the permissions issues in Browse _can_ be
solved at reasonable cost without modifying Sugar or Rainbow, I prefer
to pursue other solutions.

However, if you have ideas on how I can safely do as you propose, I'm
happy to hear them.

Michael
