"Rationale: nvidia-settings doesn't have to be launched as root as it
saves the user's settings to ~/.nvidia-settings-rc (so as to have per
user settings)."

It may save some of the settings there, but not all.  Try setting up
dual monitors without modifying xorg.conf.

And I still haven't seen any "rationale" that would make my last
suggestion invalid.  A script would not have to be written by Nvidia and
it would give the user the option of running with or without superuser
mode.  Unless, of course, you think people shouldn't be given sudo
privileges on their own computers.
