This is an intentional design decision of wayland, see https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1274451. I'm going to retire beesu for a number of reasons, including upstream abandonment, but this is the final straw.
Hello Tom, do you know of a drop-in replacement for beesu that works under wayland?
No. Read through 1274451 for the reasoning (and several workarounds to allow graphical apps to run via sudo).
