Jesse Glick commented on New Feature JENKINS-18453

First of all, in a secure environment you should configure the master computer to have no executors, so all builds are run on slaves, which may have their own user ID. Then you can configure which jobs can use certain slaves, e.g. http://jenkins-enterprise.cloudbees.com/docs/user-guide-bundle/foldersplus-sect-controlledslaves.html in Jenkins Enterprise (not sure if there is an open-source plugin with comparable functionality).

That said, it would indeed be useful to have a plugin using LauncherDecorator to run builds of certain jobs using sudo or the Windows equivalent. The tricky part would be integrating smoothly with the Credentials plugin.
