me and me as root must wastefully use separate emacses?

So I guess there is no way for two users [me and me as root] to use
one emacs, and each must start separate emacses [wasting some memory I
suppose].  I had emacsclient dreams, but when it comes to writing the
file, you aren't root [or are not plain me].

OK, start a whole new emacs just to edit one little file as root.

Hmm, do I need to make a shell script wrapper?
cp $file /tmp
chown me /tmp/$file
emacsclient /tmp/$file
chown root /tmp/$file
cp /tmp/$file $file

sheesh, hope nothing goes wrong.
