[Bug 372493] Re: f-u-s-a always show "Switch User" if more than 15 users

I also think that f-u-s-a is either misnamed or overdoing.

Currently it manages presence, user switching and session ending.
Because of this, it's becoming a very useful applet and people are
interested in using it, of course. Also, it seems to me that it could
become the de-facto standard in the GNOME desktop environment.

So it sounds logical to allow people, especially technical ones (doing
the deployment), to get full control of what we can do with it. And
currently we don't have a full control on it: we lack the ability to
fully disable one of the 3 functions of f-u-s-a.

About ou "use case [...] quite unusual" and "it confuses your users", I
can tell you it really _does_ confuse people,  whatever the culture
difference, as much in Asia (where I work) as in Africa (where Thomas
work).

On my side, I simply can't understand how this patch would harm anybody?
But it would help us a lot, and probably others too, for sure!

If you can't afford changing the meaning of "never" then please add some
"never-ever" (or whatever) value to allow us fulfill our needs.

TIA, J.C.
