I might be missing something, but I've just noticed that gtk flatly
refuses to allow Lazarus programs to be run setuid. Now I see that
http://www.gtk.org/setuid.html gives adequate reasons why this is
deprecated but there are cases where it is valuable at least during
development, and if fpGUI could exploit this niche it could be useful.
