My understanding of 'nobody' is that it's what you use to run processes when they aren't supposed to have any permissions. Giving those processes read/write access to whole filesystems seems to defeat that purpose.
Better would be to make a new dedicated account for this purpose, and get LANANA to standardize the name and UID.
