I'm a bit confused by your comment; setting importance to "low" seems to imply 
that a fix will be in the next Gnome - which means Ubuntu 8.10. Or am I 
mistaken here?
This bug is too important for that: network users should be able to rely on the 
correct rights for their new directories - you can't have an LTS release that 
applies the incorrect rights to new directories for 5 years.

Besides, the fix is trivial (see Gnome bugzilla):

This should be added to the /debian/patches dir (and I'm not sure how to
get it there - is Debian bug tracking the right place?
