Bug Description
From the UsingSudo udu wiki page:
- A indicator should show up in the notification area during the 5min timeout
while i can use the gained admin rights without re-entering the password, giving
an option to cancel "god mode" imediately.
- The dialog should always show up, even if "god mode" is still active, to
indicate that I do something requiring administrative rights. During the 5min
time period where no password input is required the password in the dialog
should be prefilled.
