I didn't know the answer. Searched and one thing is that pcmanfm has an
option to "open as root" under "Tools". This could be used for files,
folders or even applications (pcmanfm has a place named Applications).
Then, apparently, a graphical dialogue should pop up to enter the
password (I've seen an example in qsudo:

https://github.com/lxde/lxqt/issues/537#issuecomment-102769178

The project was at

https://github.com/alfredobonino/qsudo

but was abandoned in favour of lxqt-sudo.

If you know what is gksudo gksu kdesu kdesudo, it should be similar.

At about 2007 or 8, Ubuntu had a recomendation to use gksudo, not sudo,
for running graphical programs as root.

Well, as I wrote in the first post, don't see any point for any of us
use it (the three ones that have already posted in the thread).

We don't even use file managers/navigators, but terminals.

Question would be relevant for heavy graphical interface users or some
users that build for the family or friends or companies...
