Severity: wishlist

Hi,

sudo maintainer speaking here.

Currently, as far as I know, the installer installs sudo and puts the 
initially created user in the sudo group if the user decided to not set 
a password for root.

Would you consider, in this case, to drop a snippet (named zz_installer, 
zz_sudogroup or zz_<created-user> - the zz_ prefix makes sure that this 
snippet takes precedence, as the last match wins) into /etc/sudoers.d, 
saying either
%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
or
<created-user> ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL
?

Sudo will pick that up automatically.

That way, sudo could put the respective line
%sudo ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL↲
in a comment in the default configuration file, making things a bit more 
secure on fresh installation.

Thanks for your consideration.

Greetings
Marc
