What is the problem to let everyone access the desktop by default? Why is it
blocked? What is this wayland sudo talk is all about? The modern desktop
compositor should have been developed with MAC concept in mind. Apps must be
isolated and it shouldn't be a security hole to grant programs run under
different restricted user accounts to access desktop and interact with the
user.
