Title:
  gnome-nettool needs root, but has no way to get it

Status in “gnome-nettool” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  gnome-nettool reports my "Link speed" as "not available", unless I run
  gnome-nettool as root, yet gnome-nettool has no way I can run it as
  root via a desktop file.  The gnome-nettool package should include a
  gnome-nettool-as-root.desktop
