On a slightly related note, any chance that the gainroot script in Maemo 5 will actually just work without having to have the R&D flags "worked around" or turned on? I understand the original motivations behind it, but as things move forward it seems like a rather silly thing to have to hack up to make work, as there are lots of tasks that require root priviledges (and still requiring the user to KNOW that they have to do "sudo gainroot" first definitely still falls into the "the user won't be root and do silly things by accident" category). Just curious if anyone knows the story here...
