feature request: openconnect-gui without admin privileges

Created by: ilvipero

Openconnect-gui needs to be run as admin in order to function properly, this seems to be a limitation of the OpenVPN TAP device. I also use OpenVPN GUI and it has the same limitation. This seem as a minor annoyance but many companies set users as unprivileged or power users. This means that OpenVPN GUI and Openconnect-GUI cannot really work in those environments. For OpenVPN there are many alternative clients, paid and free, that work around the issue. Viscosity paid but really inexpensive, and SecurPoint is free. Both work well for unprivileged users.

I thought we could use Cisco Anyconnect VPN client but the license states clearly that it cannot be used:

Q. Can I use AnyConnect to make VPN connections with non-Cisco VPN head-ends? A. No, AnyConnect's VPN services may only be used with appropriately licensed Cisco equipment. Use of AnyConnect with non-Cisco VPN equipment is strictly prohibited by our license agreement.

I am aware of other workarounds such as "RunAsTool", that can eliminate this issue. However, it would be very nice if Openconnect-GUI could work for unprivileged users, just like Cisco Anyconnect or Viscosity VPN client.
