Title:
Disable Guest Access by default.

Bug description:
"Guest Access" should be disabled by default. It is an unexpected
"feature", on an otherwise secure system. Until a GUI option is added
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-
center/+bug/886415), it is also an un-intuitive feature to disable.
I've found it only invites trouble. For me, trouble had the face of my
children while I was at work. =) They found that they were able to use
my laptop, without logging in.
Then on their PC they found that, while logged into their account,
using the "Guest Access" bypassed the proxy settings setup in their
Firefox profile.
Please consider defaulting both pre-logon and post-logon Guest Access
to off.
