I assume "e.g." means "here is a way for the reporter to test this" (as
opposed to "for the person fixing this, here is a way to test this")

Can you suggest how to do this correctly? That dialog is greyed out for
me when I go to it via the menu (screenshot to be attached in a moment).
Running "gksudo /usr/share/applications/users.desktop" immediately
terminates. My user is in the admin group, so this may be the result of
one or two other bugs, but it leaves me unable to follow your
directions.

$ sudo grep admin /etc/sudoers
# Members of the admin group may gain root privileges
%admin ALL=(ALL) ALL

$ id mary
uid=1000(mary) gid=1000(mary) 
groups=1000(mary),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),25(floppy),29(audio),30(dip),44(video),46(plugdev),104(scanner),112(netdev),113(lpadmin),115(powerdev),117(admin),119(fuse)
