Sorry, I didn't want a long thread at the moment to try to create the
plan; if there isn't one, for Fedora 15, it just needs some sort of
release note:

"You can now easily enable both sudo and pkexec for the first user
created via a checkbox; see the manual pages for each tool."

Actually, we'd also need to mention the changes in the
polkit-desktop-policy, which looks like it boils down to "Change the
system time" and "Mount internal file systems"?

Well except it *would* for the first, but the clock mechanism moved to
org.gnome.settingsdaemon.datetimemechanism.
