If OpenSolaris/Indiana moves to an Ubuntu/MacOS X style "always log in
as a normal user, prompt for the root password when a command needs
root" (implemented using sudo on Ubuntu, not sure about MacOS X),
does the root shell issue not become moot? I.e., the root shell
can stay the same because most new users will rarely exec
a root shell, but will rather do all root things via sudo etc.?
