Hi, all:

Do we have a policy about network-listening daemons not running as
root? Not according to my perusal of fedoraproject.org, but I wanted
to verify in case it's one of the "unwritten rules."


This clearly falls under the unwritten use your common sense rule. IOW no daemon / service should run as root unless it absolutely must, and when not running as root it should have its own user, not use a system user shared with other daemons.
