@seb - wouldn't you want to warn the user their attempt at a change

Title:
  full home directory prevents system-settings changes

Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  mako, vivid devel-proposed #64
  So I found this with ubuntu-system-settings, but it feels more like a system issue.
  I had an occasion to change the screen timeout from 1min to something else, it wouldn't change.
  then i noticed my wifi seemed inoperable, i entered the wifi submenu in system-settings, but it would not show available networks etc. After some investigation, I realized that my home directory was full (running df showed /home/ 100% used)....i was doing some testing, and had filled my home up. After deleting some stuff it recovered.
  Seems we may need a warning when low on disk space ?
