an RFP (#875874) was filed, and i've now packaged resolvconf-admin for
debian, and it's in unstable.

Systems that want to enable some non-priv users to run resolvconf as
non-root should be able to use that.  Perhaps that means this bug report
can be closed by updating the resolvconf documentation to refer to this
mechanism?

If the resolvconf developers prefer a different approach, or see any
problems with resolvconf-admin, please report bugs, either in the debian
BTS or at https://github.com/dkg/resolvconf-admin.
