# Rather than detect if sudo wants a password this time, -k makes sudo always ask for
# a password if one is required. Passing a quoted compound command to sudo (or sudo -s)
# directly doesn't work, so we shellquote it with pipes.quote() and pass the quoted
# string to the user's shell. We loop reading output until we see the randomly-generated
# sudo prompt set with the -p option.
# If we have a password, we run sudo with a randomly-generated
# prompt set using -p. Otherwise we run it with -n, which makes
# it fail if it would have prompted for a password.
