Hi Marius, I don't believe there is any active work going on in the area that you mention. It seems to change and improve on an "as-needed" basis based on bug reports and the like. If you are interested in suggesting a patch, I'm sure the list would be interested in reviewing your ideas.

The approach taken in spawn.cc is a lot more radical though, the security descriptor is basically blown away. This seems to break my code. Has anybody else encountered this problem? Are there plans to move to a more nuanced approach when adjusting the permissions on the window stations/desktop? Thanks for any pointers/comments.
