Tramp covers this use case for me at least.
FWIW, I think we should remove this feature. It has always surprised me since
it's so different from how other programs on GNU/Linux usually behaves.
Would it be a good idea to also add something to the FAQ or Manual on the
recommended way to edit files as root (which perhaps should be: use Tramp)?
Thanks,
