what about sudo x-terminal-emulator ? Or whatever you use like rxvt or eterm. I don't for sure because I do use "x-terminal-emulator -e su - root" to spawn a new shell with a "password:" prompt. Also I don't really use "x-terminal-emulator" but have a symlinx to it in /usr/bin name "rootxterm" with it's own properties defined for my Window Manager. But the basic "x-terminal-emulator -e su - root" should work and get you started. Of course sudoing it would be cool too.
