Just now, both the server and desktop editions of the Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty Jackalope beta have been released. It comes with a boatload of new features, some of which come courtesy of upstream. A new GNOME release, a new X.org release, a new notification system, they're all in there.

Root is still very much available if you want it;I think that the sudo option is actually more suitable for most users (and uses) in any regard.
Unless I misread you, you do agree that rm -rf / is not really a feature worth having.
Finally, it is clear that CAB is still available for users who want such things. Considering that most users don't even know that it exists and that accidentally triggering it can cause you to lose your session, it is no wonder that some people think that turning it off by default is actually a good thing.
Basically, from the evidence you provide, I can't see the logical connection to your conclusion that Ubuntu is heading in the same path as Windows and moreso that they will end up in a situation exactly similar to the one in Windows.
