If that were the case then EVERY distro (Including Gutsy) needs to be changed. Without this, the system creates /dev/dri/card0 with crw-rw---- root root permissions, and the gui fails to display (it still loads, just nothing appears on the screen). Remote loging in and running "export DISPLAY=:0 && xterm &" will launch an xterm session, but it isn't visible. The system still requires each application to authenticate with the Xserver, so your argument isn't a valid issue.
The other way to fix this is to create /dev/dri/card0 following the proper makedev configuration (group is changed to video), then adding the default user to the video group, but the result is still the same.
