[Bug 12154] Re: Nautilus should have a superuser mode

[sam tygier]

adding contextual menu item seems like a work around. the item should
not show up on all files. if this is done at a deeper level it could be
done better. for example you don't need to be super user to open a
system config file, so you should only be asked for them when you try to
save it.

also this is not just for system admin tasks. a parent might need to
look through a childs home folder for example.
