Seems so, weird.

Also strange...



 Hmm. I have seen gksu (not gksudo) run in a terminal to do something and

Yes, that is possible with gksu or su. But behaviour of these commands is
configurable. So, I don't see this as problem.
Usually good advice is to use sudo, with it, elevated privileges are used
only if next command also start with sudo.
