Description: manage files as administrator using the admin:// KIO protocol
kio-admin implements the admin:// protocol which gives administrative access
to the entire system. This is achieved by talking, over D-Bus, with a
root-level helper binary that in turn uses existing KIO infrastructure to run
file:// operations in root-scope.
.
Simply put: admin:// is exactly like file:// but redirected over D-Bus to gain
administrative privileges.
