Still not what would be easy for me. _For me_ on this specific computer
having a dedicated terminal for root is the easiest, and safest solution.

When I ssh into the machine I even LIKE the "difficulties" of using sudo
as it makes me aware of the fact I run things with sudo.

Using `terminal -e 'sudo -i'` is the same as `terminal -e 'su -'` so I
could use that instead. OTOH I use `su -` for several years and it isn't
broken, so I don't want to fix it.
