But what should be the default - and what other options should we have?

For openSUSE, the main usage szenario is desktop. But I hear we have many
single user machines but also those with a separate admin...

If there is an admin that admin will (given the tool) do his job and configure
security to the use case's needs.

Hence I would not worry about any scenario where an admin is present but
rather about the administrability of the security for both, users as well as
admins. That includes desktop-lockdown via kiosk-systems or to be more precise
tools to do so easily.
