-rxvt-unicode does not directly support tabs. It will work fine with
-tabbing functionality of many window managers or similar tabbing programs,
-and its embedding-features allow it to be embedded into other programs,

-Likely not. While I honestly try to make it secure, and am probably not
-bad at it, I think it is simply unreasonable to expect all of freetype
-+ fontconfig + xft + xlib + perl + ... + rxvt-unicode itself to all be
-secure. Also, rxvt-unicode disables some options when it detects that it
-runs setuid or setgid, which is not nice. Besides, with the embedded perl

-<p>Elevated privileges are only required for utmp and pty operations on some

-<p>So, while setuid/setgid operation is supported and not a problem on your

+<dd>
+<p>When rxvt-unicode detects that it runs setuid or setgid, it will fork
+into a helper process for privileged operations (pty handling on some
+systems, utmp/wtmp/lastlog handling on others) and drop privileges
+immediately. This is much safer than most other terminals that keep
+privileges while running (but is more relevant to urxvt, as it contains
+things as perl interpreters, which might be ``helpful'' to attackers).</p>
+</dd>
+<dd>
+<p>This forking is done as the very first within main(), which is very early
+and reduces possible bugs to initialisation code run before main(), or
+things like the dynamic loader of your system, which should result in very
+little risk.</p>
