I don't think many of the system-config apps are "end user desktop"
stuff at all. What needs to be fixed [1] though is at least printing,
sound, display, software installation, date/time and network. Right now,
in the default install, this requires the root password. I think that
was the bug Havoc talked about.

[1] : here fixed can also mean replaced with something that more, uhm,
suitable for desktop use - look at NetworkManager for an example
