I agree with you that a bug can be a lot of things, but at this point, since this behavior is expected to work this way ( I mean that ubuntu isn't designed to work with root account, I can't say if it's possible to make it work with root by I believe that it is ), if you just open a bug report, you'll probably don't get the attention you want for this problem you try to work on. That's why I suggest you to speaks with ubuntu developpers. Perhaps that enabling root account is even possible and that they know how or else at least you will speak to people who are responsible of these kinds of things. From now on, root account cannot be easily activated because of security concerns. Changing that can be pretty more dramatic than let the things as it is here. Perhaps that you can help to create a better compromise around this problem, you just need to speak to the right people and work with the community.
