New spinner obfuscates password entry requests (e.g., for sudo ops) #134

I upgraded to rig 2.1.0 and just tried to stop my dev machine and thought it was borked on the second shut down step (Cleaning up local networking). I know it says "may require your admin password” but it’s not immediately clear that it’s asking for it when the cursor just changes to a key. A couple of our other colleagues also didn’t realize it was asking for a password. I thought my dev machine just wasn’t stopping.

This may require special handling when a given command may stop to ask for sudo, unless we can preemptively escalate to admin permissions once when we know it will be needed for a given command.
