Although the line of "root password required" is (IMHO) a great place to

the differences between the roles of user and administrator.
It has been pointed out before but any tool that requires a password for a desktop functionality is broken. We should divide by functionality. Not by whether it requires a root password or not

Can you give some examples?  I am trying to figure out which tools this
would apply to.  I don't recall getting password prompted for anything
which *wasn't* a global system setting change that would affect other
users on a managed system.
I was talking about a general idea, not specific bugs
