If a user who has the right to act as root asks to authorize a program to run as root on their behalf, we should grant that request. And, once we grant it, we shouldn't be passive-aggressive and say "sure you can run it, but no graphics for you!".The point is, if things in Fedora require "run this bit of GUI as root" in order to function, we've done a poor job
nonsense"code-editor" needs to run as root to edit *correctly* root-owned config files and yes i am magnitues faster open a dozen config files in a GUI editor with tabs then with nano which is fine for (only small) single files
maybe you only have dedicated configuration tools in your mind, i prefer to install *nothing* which is not strongly needed on machines and the way i do things is backed by running 8 years a dozen Fedora servers never reinstalled from scratch
