I think kdesu needs to operate exactly the same way as sudo. I now see that's not the case yet. Your example shows one of the problems.

Here is the output from sudo and kdesu:

sudo "konqueror; dolphin"
sudo: konqueror; dolphin: command not found

kdesu "konqueror; dolphin"

Launches konqueror, then dolphin after konqueror closes. This is a concrete problem that should be fixed in kdesu. However

kdesu should be made to interpret "konqueror; dolphin" (a quoted string) as a single command, the way sudo does.
