visudo has the -f flag:

     -f  Specify and alternate sudoers file location.  With this
         option visudo will edit (or check) the sudoers file of
         your choice, instead of the default,
         /opt/csw/etc/sudoers.



Does sudo then use it?  I can't see reading the docs quickly.  If not
then file and RFE with sudo.
