As for the initial discussion, I'm also against uniq prompting.

If you want to reduce the amount of questions at critical priority, I think
that's the way to go.

FYI, here is the experience I gained by installing a brand new computer
recently:

- windows only ask for the admin password and leave the user one without any
  protection.
- ubuntu only ask for the user password, let the user be sudoer, and disable
  root login.

I kinda like the ubuntu way of doing things, and doing the same within
debian would help to merge the package versions :)
