Yeah,.. well I guess though there are some users using either CGI or 
FastCGI, the former mainly for user privilege separation as I do, the 
later mostly for speed (but also some user privilege separataion is 
possible)...
Anyway, it's quite easy (that's an even _I_ could do it q.e.d. ;-) ) to 
set up one's PHP to run as non www-data and then do (e.g. Postgres) 
authentication based on the user.

Of course... actually I wouldn't like if that is done automatically :)

I really hate it, that you always reply (and even fix things) that 
fast, which takes me all excuses and makes me doing _work_ again ;-)

Ah... will try that. Thx :)

Many thanks,
