Comment(by hamish):

 while a (strictly targeted) sudoers.d approach is probably better since it
 doesn't rely on stable and plain test passwrds, note that you can also
 directly pass the passwrd to sudo on the command line in a script:

 {{{
 echo "$PASSWORD" | sudo -S service ${...} status
 }}}

 I'm pretty sure that in the past one of the web services projects was
 already doing something similar in the script called by their
 startup.desktop/shutdown.desktop menu items, although I can't remember
 which one off the top of my head.
