Binary package hint: indicator-applet
In Karmic Alpha 5, indicator-applet provides functionality that was previously assumed by the fast-user-switcher.
However, it doesn't list other users as fast-user-switcher did, which is a regression and inconvenient:
- having other users listed provides easy user switching for non-technical users;
- on slow machines, switching to an other user (especially to one that is already logged in) takes significant more time and stress the limited resources (opening gdm can take a long time and makes the computer work like crazy), when the previous behavior allows direct switching (as fast as a CTRL-ALT-F#, but accessible to less experienced users ;) ).
