If this is different from the developer mode you enable through
settings, I would like to keep the name distinct. Maybe something like
--root-mode?

In any case, did we explore maybe making adb shell password protected
instead of trying to make assumptions about whether you can adb into
your device based on screen lock state? Would that be hard/easy to do
if we wanted it?
