Public bug reported:
I believe adding better biometric authentication support would be
extremely useful and could help people move to Linux from Windows.
Adding support for facial recognition with IR cameras on login or any
other point of authentication (e.g. sudo or gui authentication) would
save time and make the move from Windows to Linux easier, as people
don't want to have to give up a feature of the laptop just to use
Ubuntu.
