It may also be possible to provide differing permissions based on a
single account, although the methods I know of require cooperation
from the server (in particular, with a patched CVS the CVS user can be
taken from an environment variable settable from .ssh/authorized_keys,
and then permissions checked before commits and reads by a hook
script).
Therefore, they are probably not appropriate for arch (this would mean
hacking up an alternative sftp subsystem, a priori a very risky idea),
but I thought I'd mention them.
