Hi Giuliano,

Thanks for your report. Considering the nature of the guest session
feature, the behavior you describe isn't very surprising, is it?

https://help.ubuntu.com/14.04/ubuntu-help/shell-guest-session.html

Of course, you could argue that since the User Accounts capplet cannot
be used by the guest user, it should be hidden. OTOH, one guest session
use case is to show prospective Ubuntu users what Ubuntu is about, and
that speaks for keeping the UI as is even if some tasks cannot be
accomplished (for good reasons).

What would you consider expected behavior be in the cases you mention?
