Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: sudo

Consider the following structure:
I work on my computer. Log in as (sudo -i) root and do some stuff and exit the 
root. I go for a coffee.
Now someone just has to type sudo -i to gain root access and screw up my 
computer.  Is this a normal structure you would expect from sudo?
I would have expected to be prompt with a password again.

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo -i
[sudo] password for me:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# exit
logout
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ date
Tue Feb 12 10:22:17 CET 2008
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo -i
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# date
Tue Feb 12 10:22:39 CET 2008
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~# exit
logout
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ date
Tue Feb 12 10:22:44 CET 2008
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ sudo -i
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~#
