if empty root is a security issue, shr shouldn't ship like that. if it
does (and it does) the default behavior of the ssh in shr distro
has been to deny ssh access through wifi and ppp so people felt safe.
that particular version of beardrop allowed  non local ssh access it and
that created security issue for those who felt safe because wifi and ppp
didn't allow remote ssh access before.

shr blog mentioned it, ML not. this is why i posted it here, because it
as an advisory.

if you change your root passwd i agree, it is in the user manual among
first steps.

hope this explains
