Winfried,
Good question. Since Linux-2.2.* has hit the streets, I'm guessing there
may be wider interest in this sort of thing so I'm CC'ing my reply to
linux-security.

[PATCH] Btrfs: allow subvol deletion by unprivileged user with -o user_subvol_rm_allowed
Add a mount option user_subvol_rm_allowed that allows users to delete a
(potentially non-empty!) subvol when they would otherwise we allowed to do
an rmdir(2). We duplicate the may_delete() checks from the core VFS code
to implement identical security checks (minus the directory size check).
