I thought that /usr/lib/pm-launch was the way to run commands as
root from the Gnome menus.  It prompts for the administrator account
and password.  Does this no longer work under oi_151a8?

I'm not familiar with the inner workings of Gnome, but I would think
that anything to do with removable devices could be handled by giving
the appropriate RBAC privileges to the GUI console user.
