But what if you are just a regular user who doesn't have the root password?
That pretty much limits the use of this feature to administrative programs
(which require root anyway). Otherwise users will end up with half-broken apps
and no way to fix them without administrator assistance, and admins of any
multi-user machine will hate it (when they install something, they expect the
dependencies to come with it, not to get a support request a few days later to
install XYZ for the feature UVW to work).
