The following shell-script opens anything as root in BBEdit:

#/bin/sh
sudo open -a /Applications/BBEdit/BBEdit.app $@

I think you'll find that only works if BBEdit is not already running. And that will open the whole BBEdit app as root user which is not something I would recommend for newbie users.

So my advice would be don't use the above technique unless you fully understand the security implications.
