Quick version

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nae-team/ppa

Then

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install nautilus-actions-extra

One very useful thing it does - it adds "Open as Root" back to the right-click menu

Doesn't work with Caja

.........

It's an add-on for Nautilus and since Caja feels more like a stripped/crippled Nautilus it won't work on Caja.

When I try to install this from the terminal, I get this:

The following packages will be REMOVED:
  mint-meta-cinnamon mint-meta-cinnamon-dvd nautilus-gksu nautilus-open-terminal

What exactly will this remove and will it cripple my install if these packages are removed?
