Nautilus and editing text files as root.

Hi,

Seeing how nicely consolehelper is used to request the root password when
a redhat-config-* tool is launched, I was wondering if the same technique
could be used to bring an Edit as Root option for text files in Nautilus?

I've been dreaming about such a feature for a very long time and it's one
of the few things left I can't accomplish without using the command line.

Regards,
Mattias
