Public bug reported:
It would be nice to see a link to the System Monitor added to the menu
that pops up when you press ctrl-alt-delete. Right now a logout menu
appears, it would be nice if perhaps instead of solely a logout option
appearing, we could get a 'more' functional menu incorporating things
like "logout" "lockscreen" and, most importantly, "System Monitor".
As the System Monitor is SUCH a usefully little application that is very
very similar to the Windows "Task Manager", it would be nice to see it
better acknowledged in the interface. Many people will probably not know
that it is even present, and for potential Windows converts (which is
most people) it will just be another added level of comfort knowing that
they can use a familiar ctrl-alt-delete to get to a VERY familiar System
Monitor/Task Manager.
Just my two cents, but I don't think it could hurt, and I believe that
it could only help.
