Code:$ cat ~/bin/sugo #!/bin/bash echo '$@='$@ [ -n "$1" ] || exit 0 xhost si:localuser:root sudo $@ xhost -si:localuser:root
Code:sugo synaptic

Otherwise, I think you've misunderstood me. I'm looking forward to Wayland once there's a protocol in place for allowing the applications in a session to recover from a compositor crash or restart. My issue is with GNOME 3.x's UI direction, regardless of whether it's running on X11 or Wayland, and the knock-on effects of pushing those decisions into all the other applications and desktops which depend on GTK+.

I would drop GNOME if they switched to a Windows-style workflow, so I'm glad they're not.
