One thing that I got that I consider very positive from OpenTTS was the
learning experience, and from that, I know that I want to do system mode
differently this time around.

In OpenTTS, we set the user and group that we dropped to at configure
time.  I think it would be much better to do that at runtime with
command line options.  There are other packages out there that do this
this way, such as ntp, and I think it would be the better way to go.
