Thanks again.

When I first tried pkexec thunar, it failed as Chris described, but
after I ran it with your suggestion above, that worked, and it also
works without the env spec.

I did find it also interesting that all those variables are already in
my environment, so I'm not sure why it didn't work the first time
without the env... extension added.
