Unfortunately Konqueror and Konsole. :-(
What's wrong with getting where you need to go via Konsole?
Konsole is easy anyway - launch as normal user and su
to root.
Even easier than that .....
Buty I miss my beloved KWrite. :-(

Still haven't tried this.
How often due you find it necesary to edit as root? Is there some problem
using a readily available but more generic editor instead of KWrite for such
tasks?

Are these Konsole session menu options missing on Jessie? MCEdit is how most
system configuration maintenance gets done on all my installations. And of
course, MC is one of the oldest and most feature packed file managers available.
