I realize that my way to deal with those bugs was unconventional, and I respect that you prefer to handle it otherwise. It would be a pity, though, if somebody started to work with one of those bugs without knowing about the solutions I point at via the tutorial and guest-session-prefs. Please note that, unlike what you implied in a couple of remarks, guest-session-prefs does address all the issues that those bugs bring up. Admittedly not in the most convenient manner (which probably would be a g-s preferences GUI) but still.. Btw, there are links to the tutorial from these places: https://help.ubuntu.com/11.04/ubuntu-help/shell-guest-session.html ghelp:gnome-help#shell-guest-session http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/gdm-guest-session > For that reason, I am unmarking the duplicates.

That probably requires changes to the logout dialog at least. guest-session-prefs includes a login dialog about it, but I agree that the logout dialog should better be modified as well. > * Bug 708982, that the guest session inherits login items.
