Well, there is already a warning, just that it's not in HUGE red bold font:

"sudo will ask for a password. This password is bob's password, and not 
root's password, so be careful when you give rights to a user with sudo."

Maybe we could make the wording a little stronger, bold or something 
just in case anyone skips over it without the significance sinking in!
