Hi All,

I find this really stupid. To have something in a menu that doesn't 
allow you to do anything. If it is not a function for that user, it 
shouldn't appear in the menu at all, period. Quite silly really, as it's 
misleading because up till FC2, it could be accessed via input of the 
root password. Cheers.
