However i'd like to see an option where the root password is untouched,
probably as default.
A slippy finger might get a bad surprise when upgrading to a new
buildroot version and sees it's skeleton root password zapped away to
nothing by surprise - an error that might take some time to get noticed
and might even get shipped.
Regards.
