SUMMARY
Administrator mode can easily disappear so it annoys me sometimes, because i can't easily move across filesystems.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open root / folder
2. Right Click on empty field to call Context Menu
3. Select "Open as Administrator"
4. Authenticate yourself
5. Select any of shortcut in "Places" like "Home" etc. which should have usual path like /home/user

OBSERVED RESULT
Administrator mode is just vanished.

EXPECTED RESULT
I want it to not disappear in that way only because the link is not admin:/home/user :(

Open as Administrator is not a menu entry shipped by KDE.
