This can be used -- but the problem is that a sh*tload of things that
are not supposed to run sendmail, are running as nobody on typical server.

And again -- fhttpd can run different scripts as different users, for
example, I have a separate user to run IMP PHP scripts, so others won't
be able to mess with passwords that IMP uses for MySQL, sendmail, etc.
With Apache the same thing can be achieved by running a separate copy of
server.
