Running it as root is the purpose of "sudo", but not knowing the root password.
Consider a configuration skeletton (from HP-UX):

MEDIA_OPERATOR ALL=CHANGE_CD
OK. How are you going to change the file if you don't have the root password? Also I did not think that HP-UX was Linux. made my scripts to work on Linux. If it works on something else, great. If not, pity.
With several thousand downloads, I would expect some people complaining. So it seems almost nobody changes the default.
That's bad!
Apparently not really that bad. YMMV. houghi -- Nutze die Zeit. Sie ist das Kostbarste, was wir haben, denn es ist unwiederbringliche Lebenszeit. Leben ist aber mehr als Werk und Arbeit, und das Sein wichtiger als das Tun - Johannes Müller-Elmau
