This isn't the case anymore.  I can now use "guix deploy" with a user having
passwordless sudo right, as documented in the manual.

Hello,

When trying to reproduce another “guix deploy” bug for a future bug 
report
I stumbled upon this one: it's not possible to deploy as a user
(machine-ssh-configuration-user) different than “root“, even with a
properly configured sudoers file[0]. Deploying with root works when ssh 
is
configured with “PermitRootLogin yes”. Following is the backtrace:
