Oh, okay, so it's different in sid. In jessie, it's "capability
sys_admin," which otherwise appears to be supported syntax.

I think so, if for no other reason that the profile is unused :)  It
does seem that Chromium needs ptrace permission for its own form of IPC---
the profile in jessie appears to cover this with "capability
sys_ptrace," which I'm guessing is coarser-grained than "ptrace
peer=...". So the worse that should happen is that Chromium doesn't
work, in a non-existent LightDM guest session on Debian...
