Regarding root file access under Dolphin - this is definitely supported, provided you have the kio-admin package (it should be installed by default on Neon desktop, but YMMV). With that installed, typing “admin:” into the dolphin address bar will pop up a polkit permissions dialog and when you complete it, you get root level access to your file system.
The UX could be better - for one thing, dolphin doesn’t wait for your to hit ENTER after typing “admin:”, and there are a few other issues.
