AFAIK, this thread is about "filesystem ACLs vs CVS". 
I've done just this with a loginfo script and it did
work for remote clients.  Even if remote clients get
mapped to one server user id (as I'm inferring from
your post), this would still work.  I would audit
exactly who is using the server (by using individual
SSH key pairs) and wouldn't completely trust the
security since noone claims that CVS is secure.
