I found you could set DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS variable, but it gives an
error:
$ sudo DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=$DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS gnome-terminal
Error constructing proxy for org.gnome.Terminal:/org/gnome/Terminal/Factory0:
The connection is closed
For the record, I want to integrate
Is there any workarounds like telling the sudoed apps to use the user's
bus session?

It would be a big advantage if it could be fixed so it is possible to run Linux
like OS X but without this menu issue.
I don't know any other stuff on my computer that I am not satisfied with?
Maby we could start fund raising for this? :-)

Yes.
Run, say, 'sudo gedit' from commandline, and see for yourself.

Canonical's appmenu is also using DBus.
I don't know the details of how it worked exactly, but I remember non-
gtk2 applications (like firefox) never worked with gnome-globalmenu and
I also remember getting global menus for applications run with gksu.

I thought synaptic was just a poorly written app because it somehow
prevented the menu from going global, until I ran it without privileges
from the command line a moment ago.

I also think that applications currently using root privileges
1. should have an optical identification
BUT 2. really should use the global menu/appmenu for consistency reasons.
Using the normal menu lets every application look crappy and I think
regarding 'design' it's a weak point
Normal menu as opposed to global menu cannot be considered as something
that distinguishes between normal/root privilege applications, as there
are applications like LibreOffice and others that just do not implement
global menu integration, so this would be misleading.

And Emacs too. In other operating systems that use Global Menus (like
Mac OS), global menus are consistent, and even work with Java menus. I
think the Ubuntu AppMenu should work like that, consistent for all
applications.

A yellow-and-black hazard striped toolbar would easily communicate
that root is dangerous, and would clearly differentiate it from the
regular applications.

Ummm... I think it's possible, a proxy that sends menu from root session

Hi David H, i don't think that's possible. I use that plugin in compiz

I was going to file a bug about appmenu not working with programs
launched as another user (not necessarily root) with gksu. Would I be
right in thinking that solving this current bug would solve that?
As I'm about to prove, I'm no programmer or software designer, but
here's a possible solution
Hmm, why not start up another process for indicator-appmenu? Depending
on if it's a root application, or a user application, decides which one
is displayed up there at the moment. This allows security, hopefully.
The idea is, the user's indicator-appmenu is the only one running while
under normal
This is confusing, distracting and reducing productivity.
Here's a proposal:
indicator-appmenu gets, initially, read-only access to the root dbus (in
order to draw the menu) and then asks for a password on the first menu
call (by either mouse click or keyboard shortcut). All root privileges
drop
I think it is quite a big inconsistency for unity.. most users won't understand
why some (native) applications that ship directly with ubuntu have the menus
the traditional way..
the visual differentiation between root and non-root application is not an
issue here since it has nothing to do
gparted runs as sudo(or something like that) and is on the live cd.
