Not quote -- most of this already goes through userhelper, not sudo,
so from an infrastructure standpoint making /etc/pam.d/ files for
stuff that uses userhelper use pam_wheel, appropriately configured.
I just haven't thought through the pam configuration to make the
"if in wheel, prompt for user password, otherwise prompt for root
password" scheme work, which is why I thought there might be a bit
more work to do.

*Most* of the infrastructure is there, though, I think.
