Try 'sudo'.  Each user is configurable for applications that they're
allowed to run (be careful of things like editors that let you shell out)
and you don't have to give them the root password.

Don't know about directories and root access but you can create groups
that the directories are owned by the group.  Put the users that need to
have access in the group and problem solved...

Cheers!
