Yes. I have an icon on my panel that lauches with the following command:

   xterm -e su - root

That makes it easy for me to open a root sheel at any time. Since I 
normally use gnome-terminal with white text on a black background, the 
xterm (black text on white background) stands out and reminds me that it's 
a root shell.
