>Personally, I have issues with it:

>1) suspend option remains, even after disabling suspend globally via 
>gconf-editor (bug already reported, and apparently patch has already 
>been committed upstream)
>
>2) I can't seem to configure my "face" image. Putting a ".face" graphic 
>in my home directory doesn't work, nor does configuring image with 
>System->Preferences->Personal->About Me.

>3) Why is there an animation between clicking my name and typing my 
>password?!?! Even Windows XP welcome screen is better than this! I want 
>to log in NOW, not when the animation is complete.

>4) Where the hell are the login screen settings? This is a serious 
>oversight. I had thought the greeter configuration was supposed to be 
>EASIER than previous releases (I can't remember where I read that, but 
>for some reason I was expecting it).
>
>5) It's ugly.
