If you could point out the benefits it could have for me
please do. Until some recent xdm update I didn't have ck,
and everything worked exactly as I wanted it. That is still
the case, so at best ck is useless for me, it just eats
recources.

So what else is it doing ? Please tell me why you think 
I need it. Mount usb keys as a normal user ? I can arrange
that without ck. Change ownership of some things to a
'local' login ? I don't want that to happen. Anything
else ?
