Comment 49 for bug 194472

mpt,

In my last comment, it is the server (or remote) administrator that I was most thinking about, as he/she is very used to the CLI and (as mentioned in my previous comment) are used to sudo and other programs not giving the feedback. I haven't researched it either, but it seems clear to me that server admins would indeed freak out. FWIW (and that very well might not be much), the desktop (ie GUI) requirement for feedback and the server (ie CLI) requirement for feedback are quite different (though with my security hat on, I'd prefer desktop to not have the feedback but realize that is problematic).
