Um, you can run the pkg_* tools as non-root on Unix systems very well.
So it's system dependent - if the system in question doesn't really know
how to do things w/o system privileges (and thus probably always runs as
Administrator or so), then that should be disabled on a
per-operatingsystem base, not as some option.
