Bug Description
When gksudo runs, it fades the background screen. I understand that the purpose of this is to inform the user that all other windows are blocked. However, for a number of users the "fade effect" it is a minor to significant annoyance.
There is no way presently to disable the gksudo fade. The fade is buggy on some video cards and distracting in general for some of us. Please put in an option in gconf-editor to disable the fade (i.e., return gksudo to the Breezy behavior).

i agree, either the fade effect should be fixed to work smoothly or the user should get the chance to disable it.
it's one of the few things that currently make dapper look unpolished.
