Description Paschalis Veskos 2012-04-24 15:45:24 UTC 
If i select multiple font files to be installed, I have to type my root password once for each font. Surely once is enough? :)

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Click "add..."
2. select more than one ttf file to be added.
3. choose add as system-wide font
4. an authentication window appears *below* current window (why?!), enter your root password as many times as the number of fonts you chose. Selecting "remember password for this session" has no effect.


Expected Results:  
the authentication window should have appeared on top of the other windows ONCE for all fonts.
