Bug Description

marlin already has the "open terminal" here feature, but I kinda miss "open the current dir as root" feature. Any chance of seeing this plugin in the feature?

The final plan is to use policykit and ask administrator password for those kind of operations. So in the end you won't even need to gksu filemanager or open current dir as root. Not sure this feature would be implemented in the first release.
