Hi, can't we just accept, that there are two approaches here? I personally agree with Daniel regarding the fact, that probably using SIP for this seems the better approach... but that doesn't mean, that there could/should not be other ways to solve this as well. This mail thread reminds me a little of the usual typical Windows vs. Linux discussions.... This discussion seems to me highly emotional.
