According to the design at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SecurityAndPrivacySettings the Security tab should have a "Require my password: When logging in" checkbox.
However, this feature doesn't actually work correctly in Ubuntu yet. (It disables the password and breaks sudo and policykit authentication prompts).
I'm attaching my work-in-progress patch.
It also probably needs a LockButton linked with PolicyKit.
Also, when "log in without a password" is set, the other two checkboxes should immediately make the other two checkboxes insensitive and inactive. Be careful not to touch the underlying gsettings values because when "log in *with* a password" is re-set, those boxes should be sensitive again and reflect the gsettings values. |
