Personally, I would like to see sudo not only in the base system, but in 
the base system with a default configuration that mimics su(1) and thus 
replaces it entirely.  The only difference is which password you need to 
provide.  After a period for migration (or perhaps just in 6.x and noted in 
the release notes), su could become just a symlink to sudo.

sudo is something I install on absolutely every box, usually symlinking su 
as above.
