Is there progress here?

I found out an additional detail:
- gksu called via command line does respect the grace timeout, matching with sudo!
- only gksu called via GUI (used Gnome 2 on Natty and using Gnome 3 (Classic) on Mint now) asks for the password all the time

I don't have a clue why there is a difference, but if s. o. could possibly help with more details, please ask I will try to answer as best I can because this is an annoying bug...
