Security and PATH

[Douglas]

One possibility for those who are paranoid about "accidentally" 
running non-standard versions of commands when they are in other 
users' directories, but are too lazy to type "./" to run commands 
in their own directories, would be to have the shell check the 
ownership of files before running them - if the command was found 
in a directory in PATH which does not start with "/", then if it 
is not owned by the user who is trying to run it, give an error 
(forcing him to type "./" to run it).
