Why not?  If the admin gave them the right to do that (which is the case by
default)?

PS: Another request: make sure the installer does not require to agree to
    the GPL before installing.  You can put a blurb about "this is GPL'd
    isn't that grand", but don't put one of those silly "you have to agree
    to the licence before I can continue" thingies since the GPL is
    irrelevant to the user's right to install and run the software.
