[Bug 844039] [NEW] Unity Greeter - By default the 'Other' login option should not be displayed

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Bolesław Tokarski (boleslaw-tokarski):

By default the 'Other' login option should not be displayed.  It should
only be displayed if a user has specifically switched on a option to add
it to the greeter.

The visual appearance of the 'Other' login option should  follow the
same design as the 'network login', but with the word "Network" removed
from the Username and Password fields.

Desired Resolution:
- The 'Other' login option should be disabled by default, and only enabled if /etc/nsswitch.conf's "passwd" is anything other than "compat"
- The appearance of the 'Other' login option should match that of the Network Login option, see attached login_22_08_11_network.png design.

_________________

In usability testing, participants did not succeed in selecting the
login requested by the task.  Instead of selecting the login ID, which
they did not appear to see, they typed the ID in the text field.
