Public bug reported:
1. Look at the panel at the top of the screen. Click on your username.
2. Select "user accounts" from the menu.
A window opens - see screenshot. At the top, there is "All Settings"
and "User accounts".
I'm not used to Ubuntu. (I use KDE more). My first impression is that
this is some sort of tab bar, with two options. If I remember my
interfaces right, I think Mac users might have an even stronger
impression of this. And I'm not particularly expecting a two-item
"breadcrumb" navigation bar, because I haven't done any navigation; I've
only just opened a new window.
As a result, while exploring the dialog, our user clicks on "all
settings" to see what the other tab means. He's rewarded with a sea of
icons (the gnome control center :).
A second level of frustration comes in, because this is a bit like
starting a navigational file browser at a specific directory, and then
accidentally going "up" a level. But unlike Dolphin/Konqueror, Firefox
or Nautilus, there's no quick "back" button to reverse the mistake.
