I assume that guest accounts can't run SUID binaries? Can you, for
example, run ping?

SUID binaries are important for our default sandbox and I don't wish to
encourage anyone to run without the sandbox enabled. We have another
sandboxing technique in development, but it runs in conjunction with the
SUID sandbox at the moment, not as an alternative. Over the long term we
hope to retire the SUID one, but that won't happen soon.

In short, I believe that Firefox is probably the answer here for now. If
this becomes a significant issue for many people then we could consider
bodging it.
