I think the issue is fine-grained permissions.
read man sudoer
See my earlier response to Patrick on this. sudo is all-or-nothing for the program. You cannot restrict a single program to a subset of root permissions. You get them all. I think there are these issues here: * What fine-grained activities currently limited to root could have configurable access. Like my favorite: network broadcasts. * Which system activities need to be accessible to the user? Adding a new printer is one such thing. I would imagine a solution like the network manager in kde/gnome, but for a class of printer queues, would help. * Some activities are already configurable. Or so one hears. Better documentation and, perhaps, a consistent interface to configure then may be in order. I surely do not want the ubuntu madness of typing sudo all the time. I am confused there the security is in that. And, anyway, if you want the sudo method, isn't it just for you to add the commands yourself? openSUSE has not, afaik, disabled sudo.
