SQL2005 Mgmt Studio does not hide system objects

I go to Tools -> Options -> Environment -> General and simply check "Hide
system objects in object explorer".

After pressing OK, it tells me the changes will take effect after Mgmt
Studio is restarted. So I close it and fire it up again. And the system
objects still show. What's more, that checkbox in the options dialog is
unchecked again!

What do I do now?

Yes, I can confirm that behaviour on both Developer and Enterprise
editions.

You may want to post a bug at

This bug has been fixed in Service Pack 1, which currently is available
in CTP (Community Technology Preview) version.
