Comment 65 for bug 194472

Users new to Ubuntu will continue to use sudo and the terminal in Lucid. One reason for that is forums and another is our own documentation. Here is an example - and remember that without running this command no user will be able to watch their DVDs:

sudo /usr/share/doc/libdvdread4/install-css.sh

I notice several suggestions:
1. Add text explaining that sudo will not give feedback,
2. Make Lucid use pwfeedback,
3. Enable pwfeedback only in the desktop edition,
3. Use an animation that doesn't reveal the password length but does provide feedback

The only alternative I see that would solve the problem is for all forums and documentation to replace sudo with gksudo.
