Description

Adds a desktop-friendly privilege prompt for scripts that need to run administrative commands. It uses helpers such as kdialog, yad, or zenity so elevated actions can be requested from a graphical session.

Privilege prompts are security-sensitive. Use it only from trusted scripts, verify what command will run as administrator, and avoid training users to approve unclear prompts.
