Interrogator as root works the same, except that your background is black,
to remind you that you are more dangerous than usual. Otherwise, the hues of the
colors are the same, yellow is still yellow, although permission colors will of course
change to those, as seen by the root superuser.
You can simply Quit at the end (^Q on X11, cmdQ on Mac).
The script that coordinates this all is in ~/.tint/menus/open/login.sh, which you can edit freely.
