I'm trying this script and it works both as a script launched from

sudo -k

zenity --entry --title="Browse files as root" --text="Enter your password:" --hide-text \
| sudo -S nautilus --no-desktop --browser 1> /dev/null 2> /dev/null

if [ "$?" != 0 ]; then
zenity --error --text="Sorry, bad password"
return 1
fi

Oops, this is a mistake of mine:
replace "return 1" with "exit 1".
