</div>One-time copy can also be problematic if you are mutating the data in<br>
real time as 'user' while running a program (that is interested in the<br>
same data) as 'developer'.<br>
<br>
This is not an entirely unrealistic use case.<br>
<br>
Also, developer would be on separate dbus session bus from 'user' (UUIC).<br>
<br>
Considering all of this, I'm inclined to wish we had a "I know what<br>
I'm using, please run this app as 'user'|" checkbox in Nokia Qt SDK.<br><br></blockquote><div><br>Hey, I'm always for options :) But the point is that a non-destructive way of playing with data would be nice - with a little tweaking with su and friends you can make it run as 'user' anyway, right ?<br>
