So rather than rewriting sudo in rust how about just writing it as new thing, a clean slate to achieve the same end? Seems better.
If I want to use, say, 'dozr' instead of 'sudo' then I can. You could rewrite all of gnu like that, 'dir' instead of 'ls', 'copy' instead of 'cp'.
Eventually we'd have linux free of gnu tools. Are people really that attached to unix? I use aliases and functions anyway.
