Thanks Simon, I took a look.

I was actually trying to be really fancy about it. Sort of like eating ones 
own tail and expecting success :)) It was just too knotty. So I went back to 
having a separate session manager, the logic of which is akin to yours.

I'm almost finished getting that back in order. It was a pain, but at least 
the code is acutally much nicer now.

Next I'll be incorporating the fakeroot code, accroding to Mika's outline. I 
may pull out rubyx and look at how it deals with this too, I know it has user 
id code in there that may be useful.
