Guys, try this new "snapshot":
http://dcortarello.googlepages.com/ktsuss-1.3.tar.gz

It has a several things fixed. And implemented -u param, so:
root at Aquiles:~# ktsuss -u root Thunar
Wouldn't ask for password and will just launch the application as he
is already root (same happens with any user).

Thanks to all who sent feedback and patches.
