*sigh*.  I'm obviously being unclear.

I am *not* proposing anything related to what uid the X server runs
under.  I'm proposing that, when a nonroot user types "Xorg" at the
terminal, they don't cause a root-privileged X server to appear.

Since I doubt that many people run Xorg directly (unless they're up to
no good), this should have no observable effect.
