Agreed.
I think this can be solved by hiding all system-wide settings from user
accounts that don't have the account type "Administrator"
Except that for most of the settings, the line between preferences and
settings is quite blurry (for example, the "Date & Time" allows you to
change the timezone for the system, but also your preference for 12h or
24h clock display).
One thing that are tied to those settings that it's hard to
different
when your are being asked to provide the root password or the logged in
user password or the "Administrator" password.
That's a very fair point. File it upstream please.
