: Yes, I believe Red Hat is one of the only Linux vendors who do.

adding 'wheel' functionality is real easy with RHL :)
thanks to PAM.

/etc/pam.d/su
auth       required     /lib/security/pam_wheel.so

/etc/group
root::0:root,wheeluser1,wheeluser2

One question though for the redhat people, why isn't the
