But will there be such users?  It strikes me that this is a privilege
that only restarters will need, and those should be services themselves,
able to obtain this privilege straight from svc.startd.

I.e., services that use ctrun to implement a restarter, or which use
librestart may need this privilege, and they should have that privilege
as part of the start method context.

I can't imagine applications that are not SMF services requiring this
privilege (except, perhaps, for debugging).

So a rights profile to go with this privilege seems unnecessary.

IMO,
