Comment 7 for bug 972721

@Thomas: thanks for the additional explanation (by not "logged in", I meant "not logged in a real session"). I can do that easily with the additional switch I talked above. However changing that right now in the development cycle doesn't make me feel confident. If you think once Precise is released that it's really needed, I can try to fallback to the gconftool --direct access if needed. Keep me in touch (the patch shouldn't be big, unity is just a small python wrapper)
