While easy to launch "root" apps from the CLI, I would like to have some of 
them launched directly from the KDE menu ... something similar to how 
drakconf or mcc are launched (i.e. detecting the fact that another user is 
launching them, and prompting for the root password). I don't quite 
understand why the menu would even contain such apps, if not capable of 
asking for root password, if needed (knetfilter and crossover come 
immediately to mind). I have tried to change their entries in the menu to "su 
-c <app>", but this didn't work. I was looking inside the drakconf script, 
but I couldn't figure it out ... yet :) (i.e. I am hoping in a leading hand 
here - TIA).
