I did some quick think about SUID bits to /usr/bin/cdrecord (wodim) and

it? Could it cause some security issues or something bad?
It's completely unneccessary on typical modern computer systems. Ignore the
warnings they really only apply on ancient slow systems. (486 etc)

Imagine that someone starts kernel compilation "make -j 100" and someone
else starts "cp -r / /back" :) . Not so typical situation but cd burning
with suid could end fine more probably :)
