Dunno, but I'll try removing sudo from the mix.

The original example published _inadvertently_ didn't have a pager in
the pipe.

To my knowledge, the hangs have all been while watching logs which
don't exhibit interactive prompts (other than paging more, and more is
not always involved);  examples are:

sudo grep -i unknown /var/log/maillog | more
sudo tail -F /var/log/maillog | grep -i "yada1 yada2"
