Syntax error in one line in sudoer file cause total failure
I have notice that when I create a sudoer file in the sudoer.d directory, then if I have a syntax error, I cannot do sudo at all, in all accounts.
Why can't they change the mechanism, so it will ignore syntax error line and will only display error message but won't cause total failure and prevent anyone from doing sudo?

gksu
GKSU(1) General Commands Manual GKSU(1)
NAME
gksu - a Gtk+ su frontend
SYNOPSIS
gksu [ options ] <command>
gksudo [ options ] <command>
DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly gksu and gksudo
gksu is a frontend to su and gksudo is a frontend to sudo. Their primary purpose is to run graphical commands that need root without the
need to run an X terminal emulator and using su directly.
OPTIONS
These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (`-'). A summary of options is
included below.
Common Options:
--user <user>, -u <user>
Calls <command> as the specified user
--message <message>, -m <message>
Replaces the standard message shown to ask for password for the argument passed to the option
--sudo-mode, -S
Use sudo instead of su as backend authentication system. Notice that the X authorization magic will not work when using sudo for
target users other than root.
--title <title>, -t <title>
Replaces the default title with the argument
--icon <icon>, -i <icon>
Replaces the default window icon with the argument
--print-pass, -p
Asks gksu to print the password to stdout, just like ssh-askpass. Useful to use in scripts with programs that accept receiving the
password on stdin.
--disable-grab, -g
Disables the "locking" of the keyboard, mouse, and focus done by the program when asking for password
--ssh-fwd, -s
Strip the host part of the $DISPLAY variable, so that GKSu will work on SSH X11 Forwarding.
--login, -l
Makes this a login shell. Beware this may cause problems with the Xauthority magic. Run xhost to allow the target user to open win-
dows on your display! This is ignored if running with sudo as backend for authentication.
--preserve-env, -k
Preserve the current environments, does not set $HOME nor $PATH, for example.
FILES
/etc/gksu.conf
Configuration file to setup system-wide defaults for gksu/gksudo. It provides an option to force the display grabing, also.
RETURN VALUE
On success, gksu will return 0. If an authentication error ocurred, it will exit with error code 3. If the user canceled the dialog or
closed the window, it will return error code 2. On other error conditions, gksu will return 1.
NOTE
Note that <command> and all its arguments should be passed as one single argument to gksu just like one would to when using su.
SEE ALSO
su(1), gksuexec(1).
