This is way off-topic for this list, but I often see "nobody" used on
webserver farms where CGIs for various different websites (owned by
different customers) are running under the same "nobody" user; the main
problem is when the webmasters configure their permissions and scripts to
start writing and modifying files (such as counters and webpage user info)
as "nobody" (so really "nobody" is everybody).
