While firejail itself would like to be setuid root, that could be a security
problem. See for instance this discussion on the SUSE Bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1059013 . They have decided to drop
the suid root and instead create a Firejail group, to which each user must add
themselves (see SUSE's spec:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file/Virtualization/firejail/firejail.spec?expand=1).

Maybe we could consider that option, too?
