The psutils locker contains among other things, a build of Adobe
Transcript, which is not free software, which is presumably the reason
for the non-public ACL.
Is having tokenless access to psutils something that would be actively
useful in some regularly-occuring context, or is this more of a
theoretical objection? I'm CCing 3partysw, which may have a clearer idea
of the status here, but if there's reason we could probably segregate or
punt the Transcript stuff.
