/*
 * In short, although an "fbtab" type of functionality would be nice, the only way
 * it would work is if there was always a setuid root program that gets referenced
 * (be it "login" or something else) when a user gets on that takes care of the
 * "fbtab" protections.  Right now "xdm" doesn't support this kind of thing.

It does, indirectly.  Take a look at the xdm startup/configuration scripts.
You can write something into these scripts which will look at /etc/fbtab.
We did just that here.  If you'd like the script in question, I can send
it to you with instructions.  Maybe it could become part of the distribution.
It's certainly a bit more convenient to drop something like this into place
at the user level rather than going thru the trouble of recompiling a kernel.
It's also more dynamic that way -- if you decide later that you don't want
this to happen, you can shove the "offending bits" aside.
