Hi,
I made a patch for YaST CC which enables it to run without root permissions, and starts separate modules as root instead (when it needs them with root permissions) [1], however I'm not sure how you might feel about this.
It requires more password entering if opened without root, which might prove to be annoying.
From my point of view, it fixes quite a few bugs, with theming of this module, as this is the module with the biggest set of icons. It also would work just fine with Wayland (although it could still have issues with starting modules in Wayland session, considering it doesn't set an env variable for XWayland). It also allows modules that don't require root to be started without permissions, which is convenient for at least two modules (and would be even more convinient if Polkit started being used in YaST ;) ).
Affects only Qt version.

One of the things I've always loved about openSUSE is the strict separation between system and user. Entering YaST means the user is going to perform system related tasks. I'm even firmly against having no 'root' but just plain sudo and the user's
