Hi Stephen,
I think it is worth the extra 'sudo'. People should learn the difference
between regular commands and special commands. you can have sudo ask for
a password or not. Ubuntu uses a sudo-like thing. Users should be asked
to do an extra step for commands that are not 'normal' for a reason. the
idea like 'think twice, type one' is good for such commands.
