I hate such gys. They want more: 777. They say: "give me 777 and
everything will work. They don't need any other user than root. This
is microsoft heritage in mind. No users, no task no network - this is
the best OS where everything work.

May be this is even worse solution. I have recently joked, but may be
this is true: it is better to notify about need to include user in
video group. You can do this with banner while installation or via
email after that.
