I thought the same, but maybe we are wrong.

Here's why:

However:

But if that is the case, why would root need write-access (through
"no_root_squash") on $HOME to be able to connect to X ?

My guess (and only explanation) is that kdesu version 1.1-0ubuntu2.2 is still 
trying to write to $HOME to handle the connection to X.
So, a) it seems at least related to this bug; (and we can't "unduplicate" 
anyway); b) kdesu version 1.1-0ubuntu2.2 needs another fix.
