[Bug 257494] New: Non locking "Lock screen" function displayed in menu for root
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=257494 Summary: Non locking "Lock screen" function displayed in menu for root Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Final Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: s.handgraaf@xs4all.nl QAContact: qa@suse.de I don't know why it is allowed to login as root to the gui, but it is very strange the user is then shown the menu option to lock screen by default. Imho this gives a false sense of security for user root, since root can never lock the screen with this function. If a user is allowed to log in to the gui as root, only menu options that will function should be shown or at least warnings should be displayed when root tries to use such options. Extension of bug 136622 since Bugzilla maintainers kicked out any 10.0 bug resolvement.
