> People start making sudo more secure by replacing it with sudo-rs

I would have much preferred if ubuntu went with run0 as the default instead of trying to rewrite sudo in rust. I like rust but the approach seems wrong from the beginning to me. The vast majority of sudo usecases are covered in run0 in a much simpler way, and many of the sudo bugs come from the complex configurations it supports (not to mention a poorly configured sudo, which is also a security hazard and quite easy to do). Let people who need sudo install and configure it for themselves, but make something simple the default, especially for a beginner distro like ubuntu.
