Yes, you can implement it in several ways.
However, why bother the user with thinking about it at all ?
no supermount -> always try to mount in background -> doesn't work: just cd 
into folder. 
supermount active -> never mount
Why a checkbox at all ?

Then this is a bug, since i checked "no mount" too.
Nonetheless gc mounts anything correctly.
If a dir is already mounted, then gc doesn't complain.
I guess it checks for supermount and if that is not active,
ignores the option completely (that is, always mount)

or maybe gksu. But it invoked the single window terminal last time
i tried it. 
While a little menu entry like 
<sudo multi-gnome-terminal -t ROOT-COMMANDER -e "su -c 'sleep 1 && mc -e $1'">
would give you the multi terminal.
That's quite a difference since it allows you for more password-less terminal 
tabs.
I implement such stuff as part of my 'gnome-commander-tools' wrapper script, 
though, because i got tired of debugging the char passing of this undocumented
gc API. That way i have to insert <gnome-commander-tools root-viewer> without
any ' or " mess.
