Agreed.

Nautilus should have a supermode that doesn't require you to go to terminal and type in gksudo nautilus. When doing something that requires permission, it should just ask you for password and allow you to continue.

Using Nautilus in superuser mode is used too often - even by newbies - to not do this. How many postings have you seen in the forum where someone doesn't know how to use Nautilus in superuser mode? Too many...

This is a simple change/fix/upgrade and no-brainer...

Not crazy about 'Wladston's' text for the box...

Should be more like:

"Enter Your Password to Perform Administrative Task(s)"

Copied straight from another program that requires password.
