No. Stop. It's not going to work.
The best thing I could recommend would be to automate a restore nightly, using
/usr/share/backuppc/bin/BackupPC_restore, to restore to a directory on the
server that you can then browse. Your script that does this could then set
whatever permissions you need.

we'll be shelling out $1000 for the privilege of traveling naked in a
three-foot caged pen. We won't be allowed to eat, drink, or pee during the
flight. Communication will be prohibited, except for furtive glances with
the flight attendants -- who, incidentally, will be robots with tasers."
