[sudo-users] A 'timestamp_type' attached to the X session?

[Christophe Lohr]

Hello,
   I would have been interested in sudo sharing its authentication as 
part of the user's X session.
In concrete terms, when I run sudo in one terminal or another of my X 
session (and respecting the timestamp timeout), the password is only 
requested once.
Well, something between the "tty" type and the "global" type...

Do I make myself clear? ;-)

Placing the timestamp in an X11 property may not be very secure.
But there may be other, more effective solutions.
Have there been any discussions on the subject in the past?

Best regards
Christophe
