FWIW, the way that d-i accomplishes this, if the user choses to set up
system w/o a password for root (in expert mode) is:

update-alternatives --set libgksu-gconf-defaults \
	/usr/share/libgksu/debian/gconf-defaults.libgksu-sudo
update-gconf-defaults

See http://bugs.debian.org/382670 for discussion.
