I am eager to be able to sandbox my processes on a system without the
help of suid-root programs (as I prefer to have none of these on my
system).
Would it be reasonable to allow non-root processes to chroot(), if the
chroot syscall also changed the cwd for non-root processes?
Is there a reason besides standards compliance that chroot() does not
already change directory to the chroot'd directory for root processes?
Would it actually break existing apps if it did change the directory?
