The number of threads which are related to permisisions problems, and my
own woes, lead me to believe that there may be a better way.

I would suggest that users be given the option of installing
squeezecenter to run under their own uid:gid rather than
squeezecenter.

The virtue of running squeezecenter as the user who owns the music is
that, if the user can access the stuff, so can squeezecenter.  When the
user installs plugins, she can do it as herself, not as root (assuming
Plugins is owned by the user) and so will get all those permissions and
ownerships right.

What is the advantage of adding the squeezecenter uid and running as
squeezecenter?
