Why should the application perform a task which ulimit can be 
configured to address, if there is an abuse?  ... and a 
'sysadmin' who does such needs after being appraised of the 
issue, not to be trusted with admin rights.  Again the 
solution is not in the space of the tool, but in the space of 
the management of the affected system ;)
