--- Comment #2 from Bill Sideris <bill88t at feline.gr> ---
Sorry, I should clarify. Timeshift (the backup application) when you press
"view logs" or "browse" does #1. Since the app runs as root it probably opens
it through the root account. 
I do not know the language it's written in but by analyzing the meaning of the
meaning of the code, the button does this: "exo_open_folder(App.log_dir);"
The result of that button is opening a root dolpin.
The problem is that even after closing *that* dolphin and the timeshift window
launching dolphin later causes it to open as root for no apparent reason.
