In order to work around this bug, you can run `sudo palimpsest` from a terminal. Unfortunately, most users would have a hard time figuring out that palimpsest is the name of the app. (I did. I had to run check the running processes.)
#3: It's great that root isn't required just to run palimpsest because the app has a lot of useful features that don't require root. (Maybe these are new features that used to be exclusive to gparted?) I think a better quickfix would be to change the error to add "run sudo palimpsest" or to have an option that restarts the program as root.
