I've renamed this to reflect what I think is the real issue 'usb-
creator' doesn't need to run as root
** Changed in: usb-creator (Ubuntu)
Status: Invalid => Incomplete
** Summary changed:
- It's hard to find iso files when running as root
+ 'usb-creator' doesn't need to run as root

Soren, are you saying that you've run sudo -s or su, then run usb-
creator? If that's the case, it should absolutely present you with
root's home directory as you are running it as root and it has no
knowledge of the user you elevated to root from.
However, if you are seeing this running sudo usb
When I start usb-creator and press the "other..." button It opens in my
user's home directory not root's. The places sidebar, however, shows
bookmarks for root not for my user. I agree generally the user's home
directory and places sidebar bookmarks is a preferable default.
