Would that work for tools like busybox? I guess it'll work as long as it's set only once, but doesn't busybox has a mode where one command can call internally another, and then it'll have to set tame() again, or maybe even restore it?

The docs say you'll get EPERM for trying to increase permissions, so I'd guess there's no way to restore it.
