well, i didn't not say the mechanism is broken, it is more restrictive
so that apps that have never been designed to run as root will actually
not be able to (i.e. nautilus) and that is a good thing ... 

apps that *should* be able to do operations as root will get fixed by
 adding proper back ends to them indeed ...
