Thanks for the update Fitoschido.
How about using gksu-polkit instead of the old gksu for applications which
still use gksu? Does it make any difference in the UI?
I can see gksu-polkit in the multiverse repos.

Bugs,
If you install gksu-polkit and use it to run programs as root (i.e.
running gksu-polkit nautilus in a terminal instead of gksu nautilus)
then you'll be asked for your password with the PolicyKit UI. But I
think it would be better that programs using gksu be updated to use
PolicyKit directly

Title:
Each of your screenshots correspond to a different privilege management
application:
* The 3rd party's own UI
* GNOME Screensaver
* PolicyKit
* And a fourth exists, gksu
To be consistent, all apps should use policykit, because it's newer than
gksu (as it's still supported, gksu is obsolete).
