Bug 157733 is the side of the same coin.  Marking as duplicate.
Bug is that kdesu/do strips one level of quoting.   Breaking with
usual shell parsing behaviour:

kdesudo strips one level of quotes, that makes it unnecessarily complicated
and deviates from sudo behaviour (and FWIW all other command line tools).

  kdesudo  kate   "one two"                # opens 2 files: 'one' and
'two'  -> BUG

  sudo        kate "one two"                   # opens the file "one
two" as all other commands do

** Summary changed:

- command chaining with "&&" doesn't work
+ command chaining with "&&" doesn't work AS IT strips one level of quoting
