IMHO, we need a kdesudo or similar, with same defaults. Maybe something 
like allow all members of "adm" group (random, apart from the fact that we 
by default allow all members of adm group to install printer drivers via 
samba now) to to run 'service' as root (to reload/restart services), mcc, 
not so sure about konqueror though.

And Nautilus/Konqueror also need ACL support ...

And better LDAP integration all over ...
