Bug Description
Binary package hint: gksu
Running anything with gksudo does not provide any feedback to the user if you get the password wrong on the 1st (and only) attempt.
Running gksudo form the command-line (eg: gksudo nautilus) results in the following error if you get your password wrong on the 1st (and only) attempt:
sudo: 3 incorrect password attempts
try again.
I would expect a "Please Try Again"-like box to appear and allow me my 2 remaining tries.
Package and Version: gksu 2.0.2-2ubuntu2
