Not sure what the correct component is for our new GNOME panel applet tool for remembering root authorization, and putting the set of keys in the panel, so I chose "usermode" since it was the closest fit. Please reassign to correct component if this isn't it. Enhancement request: I find myself intuitively right clicking on this panel applet when I want to revoke root privs all the time, but right click doesn't do anything currently. A useful end-user friendly and likely simple to implement enhancement would be making right-click on the keys popup a menu right above the panel, like most Windows systray apps do, with the options "Keep root priveledges" and "Revoke root priveledges" on it, or even simply "Close" perhaps. Just a simple useability enhancement. It might make the popup window dialog unnecessary perhaps too...
I added a pretty nice popup menu to pam-panel-icon which is invoked by rightclicking the icon. This feature is introduced since usermode-1.78-1. Enjoy! ;)
