To Do List for the New GDM

Host / Guest type displays?
Restart session API?
- Use case is to facilitate changing session-wide static settings like language and a11y options without having to relogin. Relogin can be problematic for single shot guest accounts, etc.
Add failsafe session support?
- Perhaps only loading from GConf defaults and mandatory databases?
Add logindevperm support on Solaris
Add ability to start displays dynamically (eg via gdmdynamic)
Finish seat detection support
- We need to nail down how we detect local displays for which we should start up a greeter.

Use size groups in panel to center choosers
Monitor sessions and languages for changes
Improve running magnifier
Add tooltips to language and session chooser menus.
Give "Other..." better name if its the only choice. "Enter Username..." was suggested on redhat bug 445449
Change "Other..." to the username that's entered after the user enters a username?
Investigate automatically selecting "Other..." if the user does typeahead search and the search stops finding matches
Add option to run XDMCP chooser (Jon)
Dynamic languages
Allow per-display X Server commands
- BrianCameron: The [server] and [server-foo] sections of the GDM configuration have been disabled. This means that users who depend on novel configurations which require special Xserver commands per-display is not available.
Plugin system for the greeter?
- To provide things like Domain/Realm selection etc.
Forgot my password button in greeter?
Encourage better user passwords by prompting users at account creation if their chosen password is to simple/short. Don't stop users continuing to use a weak password if they choose.
Password hints
New user creation with password set at first login:
- chage -d 0 passwd -d
Make brightness keys on screen display work
Write a pam-google module to login using gmail password?
How can we use/store password hints?
