    There are apps that can do it, but require the terminal to install.

    Also in every distro I’ve tried, config files will open read-only, not with the authentication pop-up.

      Just double clicking on /etc/fstab opens it in the editor, I can write whatever I want and when I want to save it asks for authentication.

      Anyways, what exactly do you think is the average user that can and should play around in system config files and can’t use the terminal at the same time?
