Agreed, this looks like a good short-term plan, thanks!

Yes. I think all it takes is adapting the doc + writing a live-config
hook that adds enable the needed credentials in sudoers, and makes the
I2P launcher visible. Anyone willing to give it a try? I'd be happy to
provide guidance and advice.

I'm still not convince this buys us much (escalating privs to a user
that has no running service, in order to benefit from its special
firewall exceptions, doesn't seem so easy), *but*: if someone does the
additional work, and if the changes are not too risky and invasive for
a point-release, then it does seem possible, yes :)
