The status of this bug may be changed back to whatever the maintainers
of gdm think is appropriate, but please have an individual do it and
please read below first.

I do not see a reason to have a different status in this bug then in the
upstream bug (which is currently set at NEW). This bug affects many
Ubuntu users and should not be closed so quickly simply because a 2
option radio button utility was created to fill an urgent need.

As I do not want to seem negative concerning the matter and I would like
to be constructive and help others, as you have requested, Sebastien,
one (or more) bug report(s) for each feature that was lost by moving
over to the new gdmsetup in karmic, they can be found below (contact me
if I have missed any features):

That being said, I think this bug should depend on all these other bugs
coming to a resolution. Sebastien, please feel free contact me so that
we may discuss the future of these issues.
