Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: sudo

http://coldreactive.deviantart.com/art/GKSUDO-Details-Concept-143199805

See above concept. gksudo should tell the user (in a dropdown details
box) who issued the gksudo (Use "You" for the current user and
u...@desktop for everyone else), what is being executed (description of
the command), why it is being executed, where it is coming from and
where it is going to, etc.

This will help many people diagnose issues when starting administrative
tasks. Also, add a preference to ask for gksudo every time you start
administrative tasks, rather than one time (preference, meaning
optional. So that you can turn on gksudo all the time to diagnose what's
happening using this enhancement I am proposing.)
