Package: sudo
Version: 1.6.8p12-6
Severity: wishlist
Editors like Emacs often choose the editing mode for a file based on
its suffix, and sudoedit frustrates this by adding some random
characters to the file name. Could it please add the random characters
elsewhere? Adding them to just before the suffix would be nice, or it
could add them to the start, or it could add them to the end then
re-add the suffix.

>From the upstream NEWS file:
* Sudoedit will now preserve the file extension in the name of the
temporary file being edited. The extension is used by some
editors (such as emacs) to choose the editing mode.
Nice change. :-)
