Bug#575309: Time to stop adding the first created user to "useful" groups?



This issues was brought again to my attention on IRC.

I'm tempted to accept such a change (though this is really late
now....). I don't really buy the argument of what could happen on a
"server" without consolekit: who really cares to have the first
created user have access to audio, or other hardware on a server?

Joey raised a few objections:

a. passwd/user-default-groups is a documented preseed variable,
   so it probably needs to remain available for preseeders to use, and
   the documentation will need to be updated.

b. I'm missing the list of exactly what groups consolekit puts the
   console user in, so I can't tell if we have additional groups in our
   list.

Comments?

Isn't it a bit late to make that change now?
