Can't we solve this by making the executable setgid-operator instead
of setuid-operator?

 * No, but operator should probably be in the "operator" group anyway, ya think?

You're right (I think).  I looked into the cvs logs and only found

Removed extranious names from master.passwd file, changed root and toor to
be in group 0 (was group 10).  Changed operator to be in group 20, was 28.

So why wasn't operator moved to group "operator", instead of "staff"?
That seems to make more sense to me.  Rod, do you remember?
