If file is opened readonly due to permissions, offer privilege escalation through PolicyKit (to enter the sudo or root password) to edit

Description
If I open a file as "read only" (like normal user) I would like to have the option to edit it if I enter the root password (using gksu maybe?). It´s not absolutely necesary, but it would be for convenience, so you don´t have to open Gedit from the command line using sudo.
