I want the ability to "set the default path".  That's all.  Just so that
when I do "su - foobar" then the path defaults to /bin:/usr/bin.  If foobar
wants to add /usr/local/bin then foobar decides.  If I decide I want the
default path to be /myspecial/bin:/bin:/usr/bin (so that all my users get
this, by default) then I can.

Just "set the default path".  Nothing more, nothing less.
