I have to fix the path to deal with the complaints of users who complain that e.g. "ifconfig" isn't installed, or who maybe have to type a full path for common commands. There's IMHO no reason a normal desktop user shouldn't be able to run many commands which reside in /sbin or /usr/sbin.
Unix has always been like that, too.
It used to be that many admin commands that are now in /sbin or /usr/sbin used to be in /etc. And /etc was never in any user's path except for root's.
I had to edit the paths even more extensively in hpux, solaris or aix - in fact anything in /opt or /usr/local usually wasn't even in root's path - but I expect to spend time fixing things up to make those OSes work correctly.
