Yes, it should require root. The root user may not want users to know certain
things about the system. The held spells may be one of them. They could make
the
files readable by only root, but why not err on the side of security and make
the list invisble to users? An admin can always use sudo if they really want
users able to do stuff.

Not a big argument, since sorcery is not terribly secure as systems go...
