Adding a nice field to a.out headers???

[Joe Pruett]

I've been wondering why we couldn't add a field into a.out headers that
would set the default niceness of a process.  It would be very useful
for binary only systems, or systems where you don't want to recompile a
program just to change a programs niceness.  Good examples would be
rogue, compress, news-batching, uuxqt, etc.  One can cheat and put a
frontend shell file that does a "nice +10 rogue", but I find this very
un-UNIX.  What do you people out in the "real world" think?  Respond to
the net if you think this is worthy of major discussion.  Otherwise,
send me mail.
