Bug Description
Binary package hint: gedit
it would be a nice feature if one could become root while gedit already runs. it is annoying to have to exit gedit and start it again with gksudo gedit.
(i have seen this feature in kde - seems useful.
it just requires an additional menu entry and a dialog with the user to type in the root password).
thank
