By the way, this seems to be the case for my wheezy installation, however, I am running vanilla Gnome3, not Classic (and have been running wheezy all along sind late 2012). So maybe either you are missing some sudo-related package, or the classic mode is behaving differently, possibly due to less testing (if the sudo route is indeed the intended one).
