Title:
  Banner text and user list functionality seem broken

Status in GNOME Shell:
  Unknown
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hello,

  I am testing out what will become Ubuntu 20.04, and features that are
  useful or simply mandatory in an enterprise environment currently do
  not work.

  These features are the ability to utilize a login banner, as well as
  disable the user list on the login screen.

  For instance, even after enabling org.gnome.login-screen -> banner-
  message-enable and setting banner text via org.gnome.login-screen ->
  banner-message-text, there is no banner text present on the login
  screen.  If you blink, you can maybe see it for a split second upon
  submitting the user's password, but this is not at all useful for
  scenarios where a user must comply with certain terms before logging
  into a workstation.

  Also, it seems that org.gnome.login-screen -> disable-user-list
  currently has no effect, as it will always show my user when starting
  the machine, instead of having an empty username field that must be
  populated.

  Either these are bugs, or there is some new way to achieve this
  functionality.  If there is a new way to achieve this functionality,
  please let me know and then close this issue.  Otherwise, I think that
  this all needs addressed.  This used to work before the recent
  login/lock screen changes that were brought in when GNOME 3.36 was
  brought into the build.  (Although my output below says that GNOME
  shell is 3.35.91, actually.)

  Some more details:

  I am currently using the 2020-03-08 daily-live ISO from
  cdimage.ubuntu.com .
