[Bug 54465] "Run" dialogue : auto-completion doesn't work with gksudo

[Trouilliez vincent]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-panel

When you press "Alt+F2" you get a little dialogue where you can enter manually the name of a GUI program you want to execute.
There is an auto-completion feature that greatly helps in entering the program name, and I love it.
The problem I noticed is that when the program I want to run requires administrative rights, I need to enter "gksudo" before the name of the program. The problem I experience is that auto-completion works for "gksudo", but NOT for the program name :-(
I think the problem might be that the auto-completion only works for the first word you type. It would be good if it could work for all the words, or at least if it could "special case" gksudo.

** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu)
