I'm not certain that I understand the question.
"sudo" touch /foo works (viz. creates a 0 length file foo with root
root).
rm /foo fails
sudo rm /foo works
I'd propose that /etc/sudoers be a documentation file which explains
what pfexec is, why it's better and someone more clever than I would
have to figure out what are the interesting edge cases which still
require real root (or real sudo) ;>
Anyone who was trying to do a variety of fancy things with sudo would
eventually try to edit the sudoers file....
