Terrible concept art.

I was trying to move Samba's config file into it's proper folder, but Plasma is unable to do it in the conventional way.

I'm requesting the addition of the possibility of moving/copying files with sudo, with password confirmation, and a warning that this action has to be well thought.

I know that this is possible because I can edit text files located there with kate, and it requires password confirmation when dealing with those.
