#26910: Could tor drop privileges even earlier? (before trying to access
anything
on the filesystem beyond its torrc files)

Comment (by nickm):
I'm not sure I understand: How would Tor know which user to switch to (or
which other privileges to drop) if it has not first read the torrc file?
And would reading the torrc file not count as using the filesystem?
