This also affects rkward (R package installation dialog), and probably a
number of further apps. The -t option is important for applications that
need to run some commands with admin privileges, but also use/show the
output.

If kdesu is to be replaced by kdesudo (*), this option should be
implemented. Other apps rely on it.

-------------
(*): I do wonder, why, a little, since the foundation of kdesu 
(http://api.kde.org/4.0-api/kdelibs-apidocs/kdesu/html/classKDESu_1_1SuProcess.html)
 seems to be designed to support sudo, and kdesu itself has some relevant bits, 
too 
(http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/KDE/kdebase/runtime/kdesu/kdesu/sudlg.cpp?revision=736838&view=markup).
 Whether that is broken or not, I don't know, but can't this be fixed in kdesu 
itself? Well, I guess you'll have your reasons.
