I'm not sure that's entirely corrent - superuser, for instance, can not (with the exception of holes in various subsystems...) lower the securelevel. I'm not sure what you mean by command audit trail, but process accounting is available, and is pretty darned close to logging commands. Stuff like syscall level accounting such as available in sun's bsm stuff is, unfortunately, not available presently.
