export DISPLAY=:0

in your .bashrc or .profile?-)

Anyway, I think the script is "inherited" from SB development where
the dersired display is (almost) never :0 so it doesn't really make
sense to fall back to it (you don't usually want to run the UI on your
main display although people do (accidentally) attempt it from time to
time ;)
