Ok, I forgot a significant number of programs that require suid access.
However, a well-configured sudoers file would allow everyone sudo access
to changing their passwords.
Programs running in cron jobs shouldn't mind -- they could be executed
as whatever user they were going to be suid to.
Hmm.
Now I am *very* curious. :) Maybe even curious enough to try setting up
a machine of my own this way. :)
(The one thing I imagine would break it significantly would be me --
mail spool.)
