Sorry, I dont quite get that. My use case is not that a normal user can do it adhoc, but that it can be configured to be done via a normal user. I presume that by 'other options' you mean CAP_ADMIN/root - neither of which are appropriate for running performance test suites, which is why I am asking for this. I can completely understand that this isn't something you're interested in fixing yourself, but if you throw me a vague pointer at the relevant code I can look into it, or can we mark it upstream [I'm disagreeing that this is an invalid request] ?
