I've recently noticed Eshell is now calling tramp for every sudo
command. Tramp is very slow, and I believe for most cases tramp
intermediation is unnecessary.

Could we please add a customizable switch to enable/disable
eshell/sudo? Disabling eshell/sudo by default would be even better.

Excellent. Aliases stay persistent, so it is the complete solution. I've
added this to eshell.texi.

Best regards, Michael.
