Thanks for opening this bug report.
Most of the daemons you've listed run as superuser as that is the only
way to have the necessary privileges for them to operate correctly. In
some cases, the daemons are protected by AppArmor profiles. This is the
case with cups and dhcp3.
If you have discovered a way of running some of the daemons you've
listed above as a non-root user, without losing functionality, please
open a separate bug report for each of them that includes
instructions/patches.
Thank you.
