I have worked on UNIX for about 5 years doing things from user-space programs
down through hardware drivers, the only time you NEED to be root is to "make
install; insmod driver" the hardware driver, assuming you know how to use file
permissions. The only possible exception I have seen is a program that is ONLY
used for machine maintenance by root.
