I'd actually like this to go in separately from all the other security stuff.

And I just checked this on a separate branch, just because I wanted to
see what the overall diff was. There's a conflict with apparmor
already - the resolution looks fairly straightforward, but considering
the area this touches, it would probably be good that Kees keeps this
branch and verifies things like that.
