I finished work on a new module today -- it is called "sudo.py" and does
pretty much what you would expect.

If executed as a main program, on Linux or MacOS, it just runs "sudo" which
is not very exciting. On Windows, it requests elevation and runs a command
as an Administrator, which is a capability I have been wanting for years.

Or you can call it at the beginning of a Python program like this:
>>> import sudo
>>> sudo.run_elevated()  # run this script as an Administrator
which creates a new window (on Windows) and runs the script (from the top)
with elevated privileges.

Of course it requires PyWin32 to perform all this magic on Windows.

I want to publish it -- but in what form?
If you care, please respond to this poll.
