+1.

The third 'A' of triple-A (AAA) is accountability.  If you share accounts you defeat accountability.  This has nothing to do with data access, or user home directory data access; yes, there should be mechanisms in place for monitoring.  But those mechanisms need their own accountability, too.  The access should be done only by an account authorized to do so.

Without accountability, authentication and authorization don't mean a whole lot.
