As a developer, I agree with Kees and feel that having different sudo
defaults for different Ubuntu installations is odd and confusing for
people new to Ubuntu. New Ubuntu desktop users should not be directed to
open a terminal and type sudo commands at all, and should be directed to
use the existing graphical tools to administer their system and where
they are not enough, use gksudo. However, people used to Ubuntu desktop
and using sudo on it who try out Ubuntu server are almost guaranteed to
be confused. As such, IMO this should be fixed in documentation
surrounding the use of sudo on the desktop (ie, use the gui tools or
gksudo), and not in the sudo configuration.
