Works as designed, thus closing. Still reassigning though, as maybe the gnome developers really want to give you even better ways to shoot yourself in the foot. (I dont think that should be done, "that" being allowing to run every x app as root from gnome-root-terminal out-of-the-box.) regards, Holger
