I haven't reviewed the document, but this exchange caught my eye.
The account can assume the role, but only does so when specifically 
requested by entering a profiled shell or using pfexec.  There's no 
extra privilege when you're running in, say, bash or ksh.

Please do not recommend a second user account, it makes OpenSolaris 
appear needlessly complex.  At some point we may alter the RBAC 
privileges created by default to be somewhat less expansive than they 
are right now, but presently the behavior that results is what is 
expected for a single-user system, which is that the user can administer 
his own system.
