Adding to a sudo-enabled group is not enough? Since /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow do not have 'account type' fields, what does it mean to be an administrator? Belong to the admin group? adm? sudo? Why did gnome-control-center asked specifically for patola's password? What if there were two people with 'administrator' types? Should it instead ask for the root password then?
