Description
Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.16-20160809160037+24badd1
The GUI does not load to allow login when using 'root' user. No terminal commands can be used either ie 'kaybase login' says not admin. Made a non user account and fixed error but still annoying to switch users.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the login failure for the root user in the Keybase GUI and with the keybase login command. Compare both behaviors with a non-root account and determine the expected root-user behavior; the issue is complete when the GUI and terminal login paths handle root consistently or clearly report the supported restriction.
