Ok we're pretty far afield here but I don't disagree with anything you're
saying here - all that work would help - but it doesn't change my opinion
that by far the biggest bang for the buck in terms of security is making
sure we get updates as painlessly (well tested etc.) as possible.  And
hence, that's why we should not have any password prompts for updating.
