Status in Ubuntu Manual: Fix Committed

Bug description:
Rev. 788
Ch.1, § "Log in automatically", p. 19 (PDF p. 21)
Type: grammar

Either the comma before "however" should be a full stop or semicolon, or the appropriate conjunction, "but", should be employed:
This makes your login experience quicker and more convenient, but if privacy or security are important to you, this option is not recommended.
