The moment you have per-user everything (programs, libraries, permissions, filesystems, network, ...) what you have is, in essence, a per-user kernel. I think that the best solution for running per-user kernels are good 'ol Virtual Machines (in the VirtualBox sense), so it is a solved problem indeed.
