Standalone programs are merely intended as a hook for people who have to run non-GPLed code. If all cases I know of this is low-level hardware test code as used in board bringup, for manufacturing tests, or in service. If you find yourself using this in production you have made a number of design errors. When you want fancy features like security or such, then you should use software that was designed to provide such security, i. e. use a real OS. Really. Just because it is possible to use something as a hammer does not mean it is a good idea to actually do this.
