Right, that was the suggestion I received on IRC as well.  My worry
is that, from what I can understand, that script is roughly analogous
to PreSession.  I'm concernes about introducing a possible security
hole.

What I really need for this, I think, is something analogous to the
Sessions file, because it would enforce more strictly that the script
be run as the user.

Still, the PostSession suggestion might work.  Thanks.
