Yes you can install it easily, ut that won't give you more functionality
in the base system if you don't want to use the ports system or the binary
packages. Having sudo in the base system can be very useful. For example
with patches to the mk infrastructure people will be able to do builds
using root privileges where they are really needed (for example installing files
outside the work/obj dirs). And this is not the only way of using sudo.
It is quiet a handy software.
