Well, they can write to the directory. The thing they cannot do is write
to the file that was created through the share (though they can do that
by accessing the share locally through SMB !).
I don't think that's confusing, it's a decent default security trade-off, and
is easily toggled off.
The "accept guests" is mostly there to allow read-only shares accessible to
guests, so it shouldn't be removed.
** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Won't Fix

Please remove the "accept guests" option from the GUI since it creates
confusion for new users
