* Permissions and scope (system-global vs user-global)

Use case:
A user would like to debug its CGI web application written in C with
GDB. It is hosted on a shared server, where Apache runs as www-data.
When a request comes in, Apache forks, does some some suid magic to run
the CGI program as the user and the program finishes. It can be
difficult to debug this, since the user can't attach a debugger to
Apache. He can use the trick of putting a sleep or infinite loop in its
program, but that is always inconvenient.
