Dear Ansible devs,

I really like the -sK combination to tell ansible to use sudo and prompt me for the password, for playbooks where I need sudo.

Since both of these options have been deprecated, I am happy to use --become. However, I would really appreciate an accompanying short option for the password, because --ask-become-password is just too long. I think I had mentioned this before, and someone (Brian Coca?) had said that 2.0 final would have something, but I don't see it.

Do you think you could add this feature in?

Anand

-K still acts as a 'short version'

Thanks Brian. But do you have plans to have another short option for when -K is removed?
