[STR Closed w/o Resolution]

It is simply not possible to do sudo from the web interfaces - there is no
way for the authentication information to be passed in.

Similarly, we don't want cupsd (which runs as root) doing this since not
all administrators want to share their printers via Samba and not all
systems even want to run Samba.

This will not be implemented.
