Bug Description

Every package that is opened by "gksudo" or "gksu" will be opened in the background and also will take much longer to start than if the program was opened with "sudo"

Example:
Code:
gksu /usr/sbin/synaptic

will take longer to open and will also be opened in the background instead of the foreground.
But if I replace "gksu" or "gksudo" with "sudo"
Code:
sudo /usr/sbin/synaptic

Than the package will be opened faster and in the foreground.
