I chatted with Fil about this in the pre-3 days and it was a requirement at the 
time. Have things changed to the point where it works without it?  Every time 
I've tried to do it without sudo on Macintosh it fails.

Subject: sans sudo on npm install

I'm not a Node.js expert, but the Linux person inside me says that using sudo 
to install and run things ought to be avoided if possible.

Would there be objection if I changed cordova-docs to omit sudo from the npm 
install commands? And added references to some of these items below?
