I propose that we add /sbin and /usr/sbin to the path for normal users

non-root users (ifconfig, fdisk, parted), and IMHO, any tool which
assumes the user is root because it lives in /sbin is fundamentally
broken. The LSB doesn't mandate this (at least, not anywhere I can see),
so I propose that we just do it.
Anyone opposed to such an action?
Not at all,

I've been consistenly changing /etc/profile todo exactly this since the
day I started using RH 4.0

+1000000 here too
I'm tired of editing profiles, too. I've never had any trouble with
/sbin and /usr/sbin in my PATH for over two years. It's frustrated me
more than enough times.
