Use TouchID for authentication if present

in progress

Andy Fragen

It would be great to add TouchID as an authentication method for those actions that require it, if it is available.

Specifically, when asked for authentication for editing the hosts file.

I'd love to see this come to fruition. I feel like it makes it a more seamless experience for end-users who are already used to using TouchID for authenticating to login, changing settings, and other apps/systems that ask for it.

Will this also support that Apple Watch-based authentication method?
