So much overreaction to incorrect information.  Yes, by default, the root password is locked, which has been the case for a long time.  The installer lets you set it if you want.  There is no change to su or sudo.  As always, if the root password is disabled, you can't use su to get to root.  But again, as always, sudo will still work if your user account is set as an administrator (i.e. part of wheel group).  And ssh to root will work if you setup a key.

Thank you; as long as I'm not forced to use sudo, there's no reason to leave. After all, I own both boxen, I know the root passwords because I'm the one who set them and I see no reason to pretend that I don't.
