Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-system-tools
When a new user is created using users-admin, users can be switched from the logout window for instance. This should be documented in users-admin docs but this is not the main point of this bug. When users are switched, people can get back either pressing ctrl+alt+F7 or whatever (and that's context dependent), or selecting "switch user" again, logging in, getting a warning about being already logged and *then* inserting again their own password. This is very poor usability, since new users won't find an easy way to switch back and forth, nor they will know about user-switch applet. My proposed fix is to add the fast-user-switch applet to the panel whenever a new user is added, and maybe even tell the user that an user switch button has been added to the panel. Is this possible/agreable? ** Affects: gnome-system-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Wishlist Assignee: Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Rejected -- [users-admin] usability bugs related to new users creation https://launchpad.net/bugs/67929 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
