doas is not a compatible drop-in replacement for existing users.

I did not claim that.

Here is my doas config:

    cat /etc/doas.conf
    permit nopass jane as root
It be read and understood without prior knowledge.

Sudo: #ALL ALL = (root) NOPASSWD: C_ZFS

I have no idea what is going here, not sure what ALL means, why root is in (), etc.

Neither is sudo-rs. From TFA:

> some features of the original sudo will not be implemented in sudo-rs if they serve only highly niche use cases

I wonder if there’s one that hardcodes a simple policy like “members of the wheel group can run any command with a password, and a 5 minute timeout”, but is also sudo command line compatible.

That’s what 99% of distros default to, and it’s simple.

For my limited use case, alias sudo=doas seems to work fine.
