Description Sven Arvidsson 2006-06-11 15:43:05 UTC 
It would be great if g-s-t were set up to use gksu everywhere. At the moment only launching the tools from the menu invokes gksu.

This makes it easy to configure gksu to work in sudo-mode.

At least the "Adjust date & time" in the clock applet and the Nautilus context menu for "Share folder" still falls back to g-s-t own method of authentication (asking for a root password).
