Make Administrator Mode More Apparent

Currently, when you run Salamander "as Administrator", there is only the wording "(Administrator)" to differentiate it from a non-Admin session.

It would be better if there were some way to make it more apparent that you're running "as Administrator".
I'd even take something outlandish. Making the UI pink, would work .
Just something to remind you, more often, hey, you're running as Administrator!

I assume this will be no longer needed when Salamander gets support for temporary elevation.

However, in the meantime, if I need to run (and differentiate between) elevated and normal instances, I change the icon in Options > Configuration... > Main Window.
