Ah. It's a distro issue. I just brought up Linux Mint 12 LO 3.4.4 and the option is missing there as well. Fired up Ubuntu 11.04 (Natty) and the option is there with LO 3.3.4 (distro version). I reckon that the distro packagers are trying to dumb down everything... including LO. File an LO bug in both Fedora and LO. Note: installing directly from LO (3.3.4 or 3.4.x) has the option, so it's definately a distro packaging issue.
