Synaptic - starting from Menu + krunner - kaktux - 7th September 2016

I use krunner (alt+F2) quite a lot - and just saw that, when starting synaptic through krunner it does not start with administrator privileges (no box to enter password appears) - so no changes/installations can be done.

When opening synaptic through the menu the box appears.

Can anyone confirm that?

Would be nice to have the programs starting uniform/with the same options - whatever the way is you start it (menu, krunner, terminal).
