The only way to remove the rights required by programs is to completely re-write them and / or the OS, there is no other way.
This was also the case in older versions of windows NT style operating systems (Win 9.x had no security at the system level). windows XP faked the old way of working in the 9.x windows versions, for the home market, by making every user a full administrator, which made it look like the users did not need admin rights to install Programs, Drivers , Printers Etc. - They did but it was not obvious to the user.
It was actually common practice in NT, Win2000 and thus XP to create all users as Administrator accounts and leave the correction to the System / Server Admin to reduce the rights to safe levels, or leave them as local rights and constrain them at the network level.
