What do you think of the idea of making /dev/kbd and /dev/mouse
require the same session as /dev/kb (console keyboard/display)?
I tried out changes to do that and it's pretty easy.
(change posted in a previous message)

I'm not sure what's best:
(1) make the Xserver SUID root and all the devices 0600
(2) make getty fix up related devices based on /dev/fbtab
(3) require root or same session as /dev/kb
(4) require root or same UID as session on /dev/kb

Would anyone like to offer arguments for any particular way?
