There are two possible solutions:

1)      Look at the turkish Linux distro that delivers a complete
        uncastrated Linux, create a linux distro that includes the 
        needed features (make sure that these features cannot be
        unconfigured) and send me a version so I can start implementing
        support for fine grained privileges on Linux into cdrtools.

2)      Continue to deliver a reduced Linux that does not give you the
        choice for a different solution and live with the consequences
        that force you to install cdrecord/readcd/cdda2wav suid root
        in order to gain the needed privileges.
