| Summary | 0002623: Linux: request root password for operations which require additional permissions | ||||
| Description | Ability to ask root password for operations which require privileged user was added recently, many thanks for it to the author. Seems reasonable to extend this feature to operations in "File properties" dialog, such as changing file ownership, changing file permissions and other attributes for files which are not owned by current user. Currently attempt to change permissions of not own file via "File properties" dialog causes error message box with "Operation not permitted" message. It should ask root password instead. | ||||

May be it is also useful somehow to mark actions in this dialog which require root password (e. g. with asterisk) when this feature will be implemented. Currently changing file ownership drop-down list is grayed and disabled for non-root users. |
