Baptiste stated: A similar change was introduced in r68416, so I'm closing this bug. Thanks. Yes, that's right. But that mentioned commit does only add such sentence into the "Installation Howto", which is an appendix from the "Installation guide". These both are rarely the same manuals, but the one in a extremly short version, and the other quite detailed. Which means, people who read the "long version", means the main part of the installation guide, will most likely not read the installation howto as well. So that persons will not know about the sudo/no-password-for-root infos. Therefore I reopen this bug, I will add such sentence into the main part of installation guide as well (however after the release of Stretch).
