AFAIK it means "those listed in /etc/sudoers", according to the
behaviour of the wheezy installation I am, using right now.

Reducing  the full  root  access "any"  to "any  one  included in  the
/etc/sudoer" file either does not  improve the situation or makes sudo
non-necessary.

/etc/sudoer should start "empty".
