C'mon, that was a joke. It was meant to illustrate how trivial an operation you can run and still have OSX pull you up on it.
Basically, anything you do that alters the computer in any way causes it to complain at you. I'm looking for the setting where you can say "yes, seriously, I'm admining. leave me alone."
On the command line, you get sudo, which remembers your password for a while after you've entered it. As far as I can tell, there's no equivalent for OSX, so installing a single piece of software can involve half a dozen password prompts.
