Attaching the route I'm planning to take after sorting out a method to mark
this sysctl as deprecated beforehand in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D21662 =
--
rip out the sysctl and add an option, TAP_OPEN_PRIVILEGED (OFF by default),=
 for
letting interested parties re-enable super user policy on their kernel. Thi=
s is
a lightweight, low-maintenance option.
