Description

If sudo is globally on and someone want to run just one command as non-sudo it would be nice to have such a command.

Research direction

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating how Rex applies global sudo and how commands are exposed, then determine the expected behavior for running one command without sudo. Done means the command reliably bypasses sudo for that invocation and has coverage for the global-sudo case.
