I thought about priviledge separation, like some daemons do. If hostapd
supported that in its configuration files, or command line, adding an user
would have been beneficial.

My wild guess was that you didn't build the package as the separate user,
because there was a rather generic username set as owner of the files in the
SRPM ;).
