If autodetection of kdesudo or kdesu is a problem, we can skip 
the autodetect and just add a "kdesudo" case.

Then the user can define SU_TO_ROOT_X='kdesudo' in his 
~/.su-to-rootrc preference file.

This is my change to su-to-root:

$ diff /usr/bin/su-to-root.dist /usr/bin/su-to-root
107a108
>       kdesudo) kdesudo -u "$PRIV" "$COMMAND";;
