What would be a proper sudo configuration?  What would you have it do, 
other than (say) require the human to check sudo failure logs regularly 
or something?

Yes. Almost all (but certainly not all) of the complaining I've seen was 
either about beta versions of the stuff, or just plain wrong (such as 
complaining "they should have left an advanced way to do X" when they 
already did, and the review just wasn't advanced enough to find it).

I must admit, this is the first time Windows has "improved" that I've 
immediately liked the new version better than the old, just in terms of 
look and functionality and such. Altho it does seem to be even more 
dumbed down, lacking (for example) progress bars for many things you'd 
think would have progress bars. And omitting useful functionality (like 
backups? Come on...) unless you pay for the full packages and more.

Mine worked much better once I scraped all the proprietary ad-ware off 
the thing, and put on only the device drivers it didn't already have 
signed copies of from Microsoft.

Of course, I haven't used it for real work yet, so maybe it's a lot 
flakier. But as a concept, it works for me. :-)
