Hi Brian - It is possible, and it sounds like you already mostly have the solution! The example config at the end of the batchspawner README should be roughly what you want, except that you will use the SudoSpawner instead of LocalProcessSpawner. Specifically, you need to install all of the spawners you are using alongside Jupyterhub (e.g. pip install wrapspawner, batchspawner, and sudospawner into the same virtualenv as jupyterhub) -- the ProfilesSpawner configuration will tell Jupyterhub which spawner to use in response to the user's menu selection.
Sorry about the confusing state of the documentation about how to do this. Batchspawner and wrapspawner were originally distributed in the same repository, and when we split them apart it sounds like we may not have included enough context on one side or the other. We're happy to get suggestions about how to improve the docs if you'd like to give us some feedback when you get a chance.
