by brady:

The golang Cmd module is pretty nifty, but lacks the ability to change user id, or group
id before executing. Given that its hard to tap into the fork/exec model any other way
it seems that the ability to do this in Cmd would be really useful.

In the meantime, you can see how I did it in runsit: https://github.com/bradfitz/runsit
... see exec.go in particular.

I guess I don't understand the request, because even when it was written it was possible to set user ID and group ID in os/exec, via SysProcAttr.Credential. Support for that was added in https://golang.org/cl/4280065.

Closing, but please comment if I misunderstood.
