Not for real SCSI writers, which actually don't work without it.
Re-adding setuid to cdrecord will fix burning for some (lots?) of
people.

Oh, and I remember a time when setuid really made things worse, because
with it, cdrecord failed to start due to some bug. But that bug was
fixed somewhere in FC5-updates IIRC. No offense, but your claim that
suid makes things worse is, in my opinion, FUD.
