#: ../gui/gdmsetup.glade.h:93
msgid ""
"The \"Users\" tab specifies which users are visible to GDM.  Users listed in "
"\"Include\" will appear\n"
"in the Face Browser if it is enabled in the \"Security\" tab and will also "
"appear in the\n"
"drop-down list for Automatic/Timed login under the \"General\" tab.  Users "
"listed in \"Exclude\"\n"
"will not be displayed regardless of whether \"Include All Users\" is checked."

It is suggested that we shouldn't use any hardcoded "\n" in UI. Instead, we 
should set the auto wrap property of certain widget.

Note, if you are to commit the change in gnome-2-12 branch, it will lead to 
string freeze breakage.

Thanks Funda, fixed in CVS head.  Not changed in 2.12 branch since, as you say,
it  would lead to breakage.
