📄 Description

Instead of asking for password with the custom "Sudo password" prompt
use the osx password prompt by attempting to run a "sudo-required"
command.

This will prompt as follows on OSX, even is there's a typo in the password, we
have retry capabilities by using the native password prompt feature.
