So run everything else as root. Real secure. "Make everything setuid 0!"

  Running as root in a lot of ways is to further nail home that this is a tool that is not for your day to day computer usage. You'll pull it out for testing, use it, and then toss the environment. With the environment as disposable as it is, running as a regular user gains you nothing, except a potential case of carpal tunnel from typing sudo over and over again.

    Kali is much less of a live CD than backtrack was. Also, most of the people Kali is targeted towards would use it every day.

    wireshark as root? Honestly? I've got thousands of lines in there, and I'd not trust it. And this is no longer a "live cd" as you claim it as. Installation is installation. You'll use it for more than a one time usage btw.
