[Slapt-get-devel] [wish] how about using sudo or su

Greetings.

I've used slapt-get for a while now and I've found one disadvantage it
introduces. It doesn't switch to root priviliges automatically. I don't
mean of course allowing any user doing anything with packages but rather
 using "su" or preferably "sudo" to do pkgtools callouts.

IMHO it could provide even better security and protection especially
against human errors by asking user to provide password.
