[sudo-workers] Compile/config option to ignore bad includes

Now that sudo has include support has anyone looked at an option to have
sudo just warn or ignore invalid include files instead of causing sudo to
fail completely ?

I am looking to do automated sudo setup with includedir directives and a
file for each group. It would be nice to be able to tell sudo to ignore
possibly invalid include files instead of failing completely for all
groups.

I understand that they should be caught by the syntax checker, but i'd
like to not have a bad file impact any other users in the short interval
between creating the file and validating it's sytax.


Thanks.
