Request: keep menu in settings, but separate the app

[nemchik]

I've recently tried to clear data from superuser (basically reset what has access and all my superuser settings) and I've discovered I cannot do that in cm10.1 with the built in superuser.

I agree with your mindset that superuser should be integrated into settings, but im looking at apps like Nova launcher, that also integrate a menu option into settings called launcher (which replaces the link to trebuchet) and it still functions separately. updates can come from the market, there is an icon to launch the app, there is an app listed in the all apps menu of settings so I can clear the data if something goes wrong, etc.

please consider this approach rather than having the baked in cm superuser and the superuser on the market be separate.

another thing this would clear up is if someone on cm currently installs the superuser from the market they are prompted to install the binary to run with the app, which disables the baked in superuser, and there's no way to switch back without reflashing the nightly.

being as the market superuser has a dark theme built in, it would essentially provide the same end user experience (as far as how it will be visually presented and how it will operate).
