[Bug 1241906] Re: In Guest sessions, the "Switch User" menuitem's accelerator is shown but nothing happens when the key combo is pressed

 

Handling this in u-s-d opens up other use cases (kiosk mode? lockscreen
disabled? etc) that will be a pain to handle outside of indicator-
session.

I think the simplest thing to do, and the one least likely to generate
new bugs, is to just not show the keyboard accelerator unless the action
is "Lock Screen". And since this is a low priority bug  and a very
specialized use case, I don't see a compelling reason to risk new bugs
on this ticket :)

Title:
  In Guest sessions, the "Switch User" menuitem's accelerator is shown
  but nothing happens when the key combo is pressed

Status in The Session Menu:
  Confirmed
Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “unity-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
    affects ubuntu/indicator-session
    status new

  When logged into the guest session, the "Lock" item in the indicator-session
  menu is replaced with "Switch User", but the keybinding is still listed as
  Ctrl+Alt+L. However, hitting Ctrl+Alt+L does not do anything.

  I'd suggest dropping the keybinding from that menu item, at least when it reads
  "Switch User" in order to avoid confusion.
