I think the best solution is to just use a dedicated php-fpm user.
The default configuration is to listen on a tcp port, so the user
doesn't matter. If you change the config to use a unix socket, then
just add the webserver user to the php-fpm group.
Advantages:
* works out of the box
* easy to maintain
* simple to explain
* package names don't diverge from the stock layout
Disadvantages:
* ?

BJ had an interesting idea in #iuscommunity. His idea was to have a
dedicate package for FPM and Nginx, something like php56u-fpm-nginx.
The php56u and php56u-fpm would continue to use Apache, while the
php56u-fpm-nginx would be set up to work with Ngnix. I think this idea
is worthy of consideration.
