I've just started developing a replacement for gksu in gtk2 following
the same method used in simple-netaid,
that is: a suid binary receiving the password through an unix socket,
and the name of the application
to be run as an argument in the command line. Since i'm not that expert
on security stuff, maybe i'll
restrict this tool only to a few graphical applications like synaptic,
bleachbit, gparted, thunar, pcmanfm...
Any suggestion for the name of this alternative? What about gkexec?

Cheers,

Aitor.
