Hi @alexclst:

As it currently stands, Universal Autofill will only offer to fill in items if sudo is in the context of your local machine. In other words, if you SSH to a remote host, and you're prompted for your user account password on that host by sudo, Universal Autofill isn't capable of filling that just yet.

I ran into this on a personal project myself not too long ago, so I absolutely know how handy it would be to use Universal Autofill for sudo over SSH, so I'll add your thoughts to an internal issue we have on this. Thanks for sharing!
