Same here. If I ever had to work with Ubuntu, one of the first things
I'd do is set the root password. As things are now, you're completely
hosed if something goes wrong with your regular login.
I suppose that's true, but in that case, there's probably a larger issue
involved and you'll likely need a live boot of some sort anyway. There
is one case where this does become a problem. If dracut runs into a
problem during boot and requires the root password to start the shell,
you're in trouble. There's a bug open for that, but a solution has not
been decided on yet. However, again, this is a really rare case and a
live boot would probably be easier anyway.
