it's said that sssd-sudo has been created to be near of the local 
sudoers functionnment. So I suppose the three described mechanisms are

It's true that waiting for an undefinied time, rules become available... 
but is there an estimated time of availibility? Is it rather 15min or 
one hour (I suppose beyond is not usable)
