Once again I just wanted to copy a file to a location where I don't have write privileges to.
It would be great if I'd had the possibility to change to the user of gnome-commander to root without exiting it (Since you can't change the user of a running process (as far as i know) it would be enough to run the file operations with root privileges if somehow possible). And after I've done the operations, I needed the root privileges for, I can change back to my normal user.
Of course if I want to edit a file and I changed to root mode then it should also be opened as root user. (Who never edited a config file in /etc only to find out he's not logged in as root...).
The first time I want to change to root Gnome-Commander needs to ask for the password of course. But for the following times it could remember the password so the user doesn't need to enter it again (If I need to enter the password to often I'd just stay in root-mode). Of course the User should be able to disable this password-remembering function.
