I agree with brettatoms, it is important to fix this issue if Ubuntu is to be usable in anything other than a stand-alone desktop environment. I am currently working with a small NGO to try and replace their ancient Windows 98 installations with Ubuntu 7.04. We authenticate the Ubuntu machines against a windows domain server. I now work around this bug by installing a patched copy of sudo in /usr/local/bin, and replacing /usr/bin/sudo with a symlink to the patched version. But anyone will agree that this is hardly an elegant solution...
