Is that really true of most modules? AFAIK things like apt-get are not 
available via a system call.

Security is a big concern and it seems that Ansible is designed to require 
SUDO anything, which kind of defeats the purpose of SUDO in the first place.

And trying to get Ansible to work with password-less SUDO?

Allowing root access to any command with no password, somehow feels like we 
have increased the size of the attack surface somewhat.

If its impossible to support SUDO properly, why not make the Ansible SUDO 
something predictable so that it can be explicitly permissioned? At least 
in that scenario, Ansible is taking some responsibility.

Are you using unpredictable temp-script names in the hope that this is more 
secure, or to prevent multiple-executions from colliding?
