Windows NT vs. Unix: A design comparison
HKLM and HKCU have specific ACLs. It wouldn't make sense to have _two_ user-modifiable registry hives and ditto for machine.

I don't really understand your point here. It would make perfect sense to have two separate hives by sectioning off all the stuff users, even power users actually need access to. 'specific ACLs' have no bearing on that.

That already exists! It's the HKCU.

I really think you've missed my point and I don't understand how.
