Just to be clear, the only approval that the docteam has given to this
is to add an icon to the launcher. If, as appears to be proposed, the
system settings icon is also *removed* from the session menu, it seems
to me that this will break every piece of documentation that refers to
system settings. I haven't checked but I would assume that there are a
lot of these and therefore we can't agree to this at this late stage in
the release cycle.

This comment might be redundant in circumstances where the release team
has rejected the UIFE but I thought it was worth clarifying anyway.

Title:
  [UIFe] Add system setting icon to Launcher

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Released
Status in Ubuntu Translations:
  New
Status in Unity:
  Invalid
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In usability testing, participants didn't find the system settings.
  They expected to find an icon in the Launcher.

  Desired solution:
  - Remove link to systems settings from the session menu
  - Add a 'system settings' icon to the launcher. This icon should be present in the launcher by default after a fresh install.
  - Add a launcher quicklist that links to  Personal, Internet and Network, Hardware, System and Other setting categories.
  - The 'System Settings' launcher icon should be positioned directly above the workspace switcher icon.

  Note that this change only applies to fresh installs.  Users upgrading
  to Oneiric should not automatically have this icon added to their
  launcher.
