We think it is a critical usability issue and it should be fixed. Can this be done at this time? Thanks, C.

I defer to the Release Team to decide if something is actually a good idea. So instead of asking the Documentation Team for support, you'll need to convince the Release Team since you already have your token acceptance from us. On the other hand, I think it is a terrible idea. As I commented on the bug, I believe the user testing is wrong. It is extremely easy to discover how to change the background, or change user accounts, or change mouse settings and so on. System Settings is much more discoverable in 11.10 than it was in 11.04. It may take a user a few minutes to figure this out, but that's normal with a different UI. I'm good with computers and it took me a while to figure out Android, iOS, OS X, Windows 8, KDE, GNOME 2, GNOME 3, etc. and those aren't necessarily broken UIs.
