So this might give you an insight: I just did an install from RC4 and my 
user was in the sudo group. Then a yum update and tada: no more. I mean 
using sudo just tells me my user is not in the sudo group.

Among the changes between RC4 and yum update until today I saw the power 
off menu disappearing again (I am very sad about that one, I thought we 
understand users wanted it badly) and online accounts time out was fixed 
(couldn't get the google page from RC4, can now).

I'll check if there is a bug filed for the sudo group thingy and for the 
power off option... well we all know about it so I will just pray while 
burning 2/3 Windows installed PCs as a worthy sacrifice ;-)
