I don't use weston-launch in the realm of my testing activities and prefer not
to.  And I've never had the issue that you've described.

It seems you're trying to solve the issue from the wrong direction... shouldn't
weston just detect the permission problems instead of forcing a hard
multi-directional relationship on weston-launch?  Having weston check if
weston-launch was used to run it doesn't seem to make sense to me (i.e. why not
just have weston take on the responsibilities of weston-launch in that case?).
