Research direction

Start by reading the linked sudo-project/sudo insults.h to understand the insults and their licensing, then inspect this repository for the existing sudoers or message-handling entry points. Done means the supported insults are available through the Windows sudo behavior and are covered by appropriate tests, though the issue does not name specific files or tests.
