SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. create a script that contain a sudo password request
2. add execute permission to it
3. double click the script in Dolphin
4. push Execute button

OBSERVED RESULT
Script run in background, but it stop as is impossible to provide sudo password to it.

EXPECTED RESULT
- Script should open automatically Konsole and run inside it. So the button should be 'Execute in terminal / Execute in Konsole" (this is how it works on other desktops like Ubuntu Mate) So I can provide sudo Password to the script commands, password for encrypted drives, or different parameters for configuration scripts.
- script might also run in (Panels:terminal) if I show the terminal panel from dolphin menu (as KDE has this feature compare with other desktops) it mygt be nice that terminal to be also useful

I agree! I presume that this would adhere to the default terminal preference?

Indeed.
