The biggest difficulty with running the system server is that you 
wouldn't want one system account per darcshub account.

The solution used by others, which I hadn't appreciated until recently, 
is to use a single username but then dispatch to the right user based on 
the public key used - e.g. every GitHub user is sshing to git at github.com.

I think we should definitely do that if we have the resources (but I'm 
not volunteering right now). The current situation is a disaster.
