Public bug reported:
As stated in the documentation
(https://gjs.guide/extensions/topics/session-modes.html#example-usage),
when a user is logged in, the Shell is in the `user` mode. I checked it
on Fedora 36, and that's how it works.
But in Ubuntu, for some reason, `imports.ui.main.currentMode` returns
the login name of the current user instead of the `user` constant, which
breaks extensions that use it.
