I'll put this on hold until the AD integration has landed in Cygwin
(which will require some larger changes anyway).

Generally I'd prefer to move such things that depend on personal
preferences like setting up prompts into profile.d where they are easier
to change and maintain independently from core system functionality.
Using the registry to check for administrative privileges is clever,
however I'm wondering why we shouldn't simply check via id (that's what
I'm doing personally at the moment).


Regards,
Achim.
