While some people prefer to avoid any kind of su/sudo usage, others
prefer to avoid the use of policykit. We LXDE developers already
received many feature requests from our users for a better sudo GUI
frontend for many times. Many people really need this.

I'm not against PolicyKit. It's design is clever and I kind of like
it, but people need to have choices. For some simple usage where
PolicyKit is overkiil, please we need sudo in desktop environments
other than Gnome.
