Just run the file manager with sudo. Probably "gksudo nautilus".

So why doesn't it popup a message box that asks for my password?...
Probably a philosophical design decision on the part of the Gnome developers.

So to make things short: It ook me 3 min to find out how to copy a dir to an other dir in total (not copying). So I would say Gnome suck. Big-time.
Some things suck, but not Gnome. I use xmonad. Tiling window managers rule!
