it needs a lot more love to be included, but it's already packaged (the
last version I did a tar.gz for) in home:rodrigomoya. The source code is
in:

git clone http://www.gnome.org/~rodrigo/git/osc-plugins.git

see the nautilus-extensions dir

I started experimenting with PolicyKit the other day, and ended up
writing some code for a thing called AdminKit, which I was planning to
include the PK code in the clock applet as well as a RunAsRoot method to
replace all the *su*do things we have. If I (or someone else) have some
time, it should be quite easy to have it work (doesn't work yet, didn't
have time to finish, but it's almost done)

with the RunAsRoot PK thing, we could have a Nautilus extension that
allows doing operations on Nautilus as root
