Cool...but:

passwd_timeout Number of minutes before the sudo password prompt times out, or 0 for no timeout. The timeout may include a fractional component if minute granularity is insufficient, for example 2.5. The default is 0.

I want 0 to mean timeout immediately, not timeout never! If people want never let them put 999999 in there and let their heirs deal with the eventual timeout.

Guess I could try 0.0000001
