The problem is that this affects way more than just gksu gnome-terminal.
It also makes it impossible to do:

$ ssh -Y jaunty_system gnome-terminal

As you can see, where I may launch 12 other terminals or tabs (i.e. from
the New Terminal/Tab menu options) from that one gnome-terminal, using
12 or more ssh -Y commands is simply an unacceptable work-around.  I
want the functionality of the gnome-terminal on the remote machine, not
on my local machine.
