Don't run a GUI app as root - it's a horrible, huge, gaping security hole to
do so.
Besides which, not every app is written in Cocoa. There are still plenty of
Carbon apps around - MS Office, for instance, and Adobe's CS apps. None of
those have an NSApplication instance, and no matter how hard you try or who
you're logged in as, you can't get a reference to something that isn't
there.
