what's wrong with system settings, and what does power management / screen saver have to do with the primary user interface? why not put session management and login opitions and mimetype associations and .. there too? > The second could be harder to do. > It would be nice if we could get rid of the second dialog and merge these > settings as pages in main dialog.
