Not gui related but the only thing I can think of would be the request
to run as a non-privileged user when grabbing files. It sounds like the
changes would result in files being pulled when needed instead of
all-in-a-big-batch at the beginning. Would this effect the ability to
isolate the grabbing code for non-privilege use?
