This is a bad change, and probably does not do what you're intending.

The proper way to handle this would be to use REQUIRE: LOGIN.

It's also worth noting that the reasons for using REQUIRE: LOGIN by
default for ports scripts unless there is a good reason not to include
grouping them together rather than scattering them throughout the boot
process. It's not just a matter of unprivileged users.

Please see

for more information.
