Yubikeys are also surprisingly annoying when setup for the as well. A working developer just needs sudo a lot.

Realistically a "sudo button" would be handy, on the keyboard, with a display to show a confirmation pin for the request (probably also needs a deny button so you can try and identify weird ones).

Sounds like a good use case for that new Copilot button you see on newer keyboards.

You don't even need a button. Just a secure dialog like Windows has.
