Files in Administrator Mode has no visual cue about it being a privileged session.

What Happened?

Running Files in Administrator mode does not indicate that the window is actually able to perform privileged actions. Other file managers do provide a warning, like Thunar Screenshot from 2023-05-10 14 23 45 or PCManFM Screenshot from 2023-05-10 14 21 32.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Open Files as Administrator
  2. ~Get on the floor~
  3. ~Everybody walks the dinosaur~

Expected Behavior

To have some sort of warning about it to prevent unintended reckless behaviour.

OS Version

7.x (Horus)
