Thanks. I did read it. As far as I can tell, the answer is "no". It is
easy to _define_ different console privilege levels, but it is hard to
_select_ between them.

If I wasn't clear in my original explanation, Suppose I three users:
root, foo, bar.

I'd like root to have all privileges, foo to only be able to invoke 'status',
and bar to invoke 'status' and 'run'. I have only one director and one
bconsole.conf config file. I'd like 'bconsole' when run (with no arguments) by
each user to get the right console resource (based on their user id). And, to
top it off, I'd like the root console configs in a separate file included by
bconsole.conf so they aren't readable by foo or bar.

Thank you.
