You're thinking about this from the wrong perspective.
The 'domain admin group' from 3.0 was a limited way to
handle group mapping.  Instead of being a smb.conf parameter,
the domain admin group is now a mapping between the domain
admins SID and a unix gid.  The check will be pretty much
the same.  We'll just make the domain admin sid against
the current user's NT_TOKEN.

Removing it is a really bad idea since anyone could then
view user passwords if they tried hard enough.

No.  I can fix this just using the group mapping
entry for "Domain Admins".  We'll fix it post 3.0.0.
