Regarding "there are also ways to get administrator access without the device owner's knowledge", the paragraph above requires user agents to disclose when they are acting on behalf of an administrator and that would apply here as well. Unless the intention is to say "the device owner might not have configured the user agent, but the user account's organization administrator may have and the device owner doesn't know what accounts users might log into on their device".
I would focus this more on the "account administrators also have powers" angle rather than the "device owner might be unaware" angle.

Yeah ... how's this? I use the [=device owner=] term elsewhere in this section, so it's hard to just delete the sentence defining it, although maybe we could rejigger that in a different way.
Mostly this consisted of using "administrator" instead of "device administrator", and I added a sentence saying that UAs sometimes assign an administrator based on the user's account.

Fixes #353. @reillyeon, how does this look?
