Ubuntu *does* give you options, many of them are just not installed by default 
or included on the install CD. So what's the big fucking deal? If you 
consider yourself to be an expert, power, or whatever user, you surely have 
no problems to install nautilus-open-terminal and mailx, now do you?

Nobody got rid of that feature, it's just left as an option. There's actually 
a big difference. And again, who makes a big deal out of not being able to 
launch a terminal via right click out of the box?
