  This is a small usability bug for the Local Menus in Ubuntu 14.04.
  This will probably not be experienced by most people and I pretty much
  just stumbled across this bug myself so it probably wouldn't be a high
  priority but I wanted to submit it anyway.

  The bug occurs when running as root or invoking root with gksu.
  Another bug is found when invoking with gksu using the "-k" option to
  stay in the user environment.
