It's used in this code:
https://github.com/eserte/Doit/blob/e45a040cbb838bb93b56c229192035eea1d4e95f/lib/Doit.pm#L1958
inside Doit::Sudo::do_connect. Given that it is described as a
"scripting engine" it may be a legitimate use, but I'd rather not be
running tests that sudo.
It's not the only thing that wants to sudo. Every so often something
asks me for a password, either to sudo or to ssh to localhost or
something along those lines. I just bounce on the enter key or leave it
to time out, and don't consider it to be a big problem.
