Public bug reported:

Hello,
Gufw should show its status (active / not active) even before user unlocks the dialog. Now I have to unlock the dialog with password to see its status.  Of course I could use the ufw from command line.

Why cannot gufw show its real state when user opens the window? 
$ sudo gufw
The widgets and controls are disabled but they can still show text and checkmarks.
