It would mean different users for every piece of software we integrate.
and unnecessary administrative overhead for these. Is this useful
enough to justify it?
What are the chances of having different types of databases running on
the same system? _and where the administrator of both has to be different_?
The same holds true for other server software too, like webservers (we
are integrating apache and lightd, and we are going with webserverd as
the user for these.)
