freebsd stable - Oct 2008 - sade root only

Certain md and da devices (usb-sticks, encrypted images) on my
systems are owned by certain users, which I want to be able to use
sade to partition their private partitions, disks, whatever.

Souldn't sade simply be blocked by the system if a user tries to
change something he/she is not entitled to? Why this block?

FWIW, you currently can't use sade and/or sysinstall to partition md(4)
devices - I have a patch available to resolve this, but never got around
to committing it.

If there is interest in it, let me know.

Regards,
