[Bug 437656] [NEW] Should run as root

[Shahar Or]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-format

Dear friends,

The entry for gnome-format in the menu is just 'gnome-format'. That runs
gnome-format with no permissions to actually format anything.

Perhaps it should run as root using gksu? This is a tool I would love to
recommend to my clients but it is funny to explain to them that they
shouldn't run it from the menu but instead press <Alt>+F2 and type in
'gksu gnome-format'.

Blessings.
