You could create a one-liner comment when you see sudo gedit
with a link to this answer: How do I start Nautilus as root?
GUI addicted users won't even have to go to terminal to gedit
a root owned file. They can cruise in nautilus and drop down 20,000 leagues to the file and simply right click to edit it as root.
Here is a little .gif I made after following the answer and installing:
sudo apt install nautilus-root
