Need privileges to break inheritance

Question
Idea is that inside an ItemAdded
event receiver in a sandboxed solution (SharePoint Online) I want to set permissions on the item, which requires privileges that the user should not have on the list.
I see that I cannot use SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges
inside sandbox.
As long as inside a SharePoint 2013 Workflow one has the App Step, there should be a way to run with elevated privileges inside an event receiver also, right?
Solution
Using SandBox solution this is not possible.
You should do this using a Workflow using AppStep.
OTHER TIPS
The cleanest way to solve this was in an Item Updated event receiver and with the workflow updating the item from an App Step.
Chose this because setting permissions in SharePoint Designer Workflow (2013) using REST takes too many steps.
