That wouldn't work for a valid patent. 

I wouldn't remove sudo. Sudo has been in use since the 80's. Microsoft's patent doesn't change the fact that it existed before Microsoft filed for a patent. If I recall, they also filed for a patent on linked lists, which has also been used for decades. I think it was invented in the 60's.

Or we'll just start using "suto" instead of "sudo" - just like ifconfig instead of ipconfig 

:-)

Patent is still valid, must be removed from all Linux distributions...

Why? They didn't invent it. Prior art.
