thats exactly what my startup settings tool does...
it is ran with gksudo and modifies the values for timeout and default in
the menu.lst (...only this two).

so i dont really understand the issue here, why shouldnt a tool with
root privileges not be able to edit a root owned file ?
it works for at least 50 users from which i recieved positive feedback
(even there were more downloads already).

ciao
