Agreed. :-) But a few comments of my own, for J Grant (who you were
replying to)....

Overly nit-pickey. "Quit" is no more "abrupt" than "Finish" is, IMO.

Did you take the time to actually read the pop-up window? :-) Yes, it says
that above the box where you type the password in, and then next to the box
where you type it in, it says "Password for root." I fail to see anything
ambiguous about it.
Sorry if I'm being blunt here, but if you want Mac OS X, then run a Mac
with OS X. This is Linux, and the desktop environment you're talking about
is KDE. Although I'm sure someone could create a Mac theme for it,
assuming that one doesn't already exist for it.... :-)
Linux has come a long way in the "friendlyness" department, and I'm sure it
will go further still. But let's not get into a "gee, this button says
'quit' when 'finish' would be sooo much better" type of thing, or complain
that a box which states outright that it wants you to type in the root
password to proceed is ambiguous.
Just my $.02.
