Status in rapache: New

Bug description:
Depending on what he's doing, when user refuses to enter root's password, the current operation is not cancelled and the program will ask user password for every next command in the current operation.

How to reproduce:
$ sudo -k
$ ./rapache.py
click "new", enter a domain name and press Return.
When the gksudo dialog pops out click "cancel".
The program will ask the user for root's password 2-3 times.

Expected behaviour:
Once cancelled the gksudo, the program should cancel the entire vhost creation without asking the password anymore
