Sudo Gedit: "Paste" in icon bar does not work

[pk72]

Binary package hint: gedit

The "Paste" function does not work when triggered through the edit-menu or the icon in the icon bar.
It does work through the context-menu or with ctrl+V.
I opened the file "sudoers" through "Open with other application" in the context menu, then "Use custom command": sudo gedit

I just found the reason for the behavior was that I startet gedit with sudo, not gksudo.
Sorry.
