Wrong indentation indeed, the file uses tabs for some reason.

Which backend do you want to query, for what? The "process backend" has no provision for indicating whether or not the host support changing anything, except for the IO priority. And I don't see how you could query the KAuth backend to know if these features should be disabled.

For example, even obtaining the number of threads spawned by a foreign process requires privileges that aren't trivial to set up. I've prepared the terrain, but also implemented a fallback strategy that calls `ps` to be sure that crucial information like the command name is available for all processes.
