What a pity there isn't a visual indicator that you are weilding root
authority like, I don't know, maybe the bash shell prompt ending
character changing from "$" to "#".
That's not enough for me. When I open a terminal intended to be either
root or on a different machine, I open a terminal that's white on red
background. When I open a terminal intended to be me on my local
machine, it's black on white background. This has saved me some pretty
bad mistakes over the years.
Means you must have one terminal profile for every location you ssh
to. And you forbid yourself to use su or ssh from the command line,
because this doesn't change the color scheme of the terminal.
It's pretty heavy to manage all the necessary terminal profiles - I
used gnome-terminal when I experimented with this method, a dozen years
ago. I eventually found it complicated my life a lot.
