How's a retained autorization (ask for the root password once, remember the 
authorization (NOT the password! I know you know this, but I'm pointing this 
out for other readers who might fall into this common confusion)) less 
secure than a blanket authorization (don't ask for the root password at all, 
have the authorization pre-"remembered")?
