Ah, ok.

Would it be possible to add the values for all languages, depending on the 
LC_ALL or LANG-environment variable?

The sudo source should already provide that… 
…
It uses either the prompt from its own po-files¹, or if that is not defined 
the default PAM prompt².

¹: http://www.sudo.ws/repos/sudo/file/89153025a2ae/plugins/sudoers/po
²: https://fedorahosted.org/linux-pam/browser/po

In short:

(in the source dir containing the po-dir, do `grep "Password:" . -R -A1 | sed 
s/.*Password.*// | grep po-msgst | sed "s/\.\/po\///" | sed "s/\.po-
msgstr//"`)

These are the ones which should be accepted, depending on the locale.

(I provided the command because I do not know if the unicode will survive)

Could you include these?

Best wishes,
Arne
