doesn't repect /apps/gksu/sudo-mode

Package: gnome-panel
Version: 2.14.3-4
Severity: normal
File: /usr/lib/gnome-panel/clock-applet
Tags: patch
In the gnome Desktop->Administration menu it is possible to switch the
behaviour of apps that need admin privileges, via the gconf setting
/apps/gksu/sudo-mode, between requesting the root password or the user
password. However the clock applet calls time-admin directly which then
requests the root password. This is inconvenient for those of us that
prefer the sudo method.
The fairly trivial patch from ubuntu is attached. Please note that the
patch it dropped in gnome-panel 2.15.91 since "the new
gnome-system-tools don't need special rights from the UI" but since Etch
will be shipping with 2.14 you might want to include it.
