Something in 1.17.1 broke a useful feature, but no changelog explaining why has been provided (AFAIK), and when someone reports an issue you close it because you don't agree with the use case. > > This issue can be replicated using pkexec. And, yes, I know about admin://, but it doesn't address many use cases that have been working for years. For example, when in an admin instance of nautilus if the user: > > opens a terminal from inside it, this terminal won't be loaded in admin mode wants to execute a pkexec operation it will ask for super user password again > > right clicks on a left panel folder and select to open a new tab/window it will not be loaded in admin mode believe me, there are many more examples > > I appreciate your work and I understand the time constraints. I'm also an open source developer and have been contributing to many projects -- actually, that's the reason why I'm reporting this since I don't use this project.
