Bug Description
In kdesu on KDE 3.4, I've noticed that it now works w/no root account - entering
my user password works.
However, the prompt still refers to the "root password". This should be changed.

The approach we took with gksudo was simply to ask for 'your password'; this is
far less confusing than any technical terminology about user vs. root passwords,
and we should use the same approach for Kubuntu.
