Pshaw, that was mild.  I liked the one in my second post.  ....Because
you're too stupid to be root.  

I do find it interesting that Ubuntu puts the terminal under the
Accessory menu while Fedora has it under system tools.   (Although
as CentOS 5.x has it under Accessories too, I guess they used to do the
same thing.)


To go totally off-topic, it reminds me of Alan Cox's response when
Fedora decided that root shouldn't be able to log in to an X session.
It was something like, What's the point of this?  To make sure that you
can't fix a hosed sytem?

Judging from the link you provided, there's probably an existing bug.
