Failed to save 'httpd.conf': A system error occured (EACCES: permission denied, open

[nurp]

• VSCode Version: 1.5.3 (1.5.3)
• OS Version: EL Capitan

Steps to Reproduce:

1. In a terminal window type: open /etc/apache/httpd.conf (or a file owned by root)
2. make changes to the file and cmd+s to save.
3. Error appears on the title bar: Failed to save 'httpd.conf': A system error occured (EACCES: permission denied, open '/private/etc/apache2/httpd.conf')

I expect VS Code to ask for my password for authorization. Because if I do the same things with Atom, it opens an OSX native window asking for password. Can we have the same window asking for password instead of giving error?
Also, I noticed that this path /private/etc/apache2 (in the error bar) is different than what I typed.

Currently you should be able to run sudo code --user-data-dir <some temp folder>, this is to be improved in:

• Allow to save files that need user elevation #1614
• Revisit VS Code folder structure for app data, settings, extensions #3884
• Use specific user data directories when running as root #5561
