Bug Description
I run tinc under a normal user (and not root) by putting the following in /etc/default/tinc:
EXTRA="--user=tinc"
With systemd this is no longer read even though /etc/default/tinc is still shipped with the package, making it a bit deceiving for the user.
It would probably also make sense to just ship tinc running under a non-root user by default. It's not hard to do and it's one less root daemon exposed to the network.
