Description Justin 2012-10-17 14:23:16 UTC 
On computers with only one user, the password entry field should be selected by default instead of showing the user list (So that the user can just type the password and enter). This is behaviour with KDM, lightdm etc.

I was sure that we had a bug for this, but I can't find it now. This is definitely something that we want. :)
Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2013-01-02 16:46:28 UTC 
pretty sure we fixed that a while ago. Of course, it's possible it's regressed again.
Comment 3 Allan Day 2013-01-16 12:34:05 UTC 
Testing a new install of F18 with one user account: after boot I have to select the user from the list before entering a password.
Comment 4 Bastien Nocera 2014-11-07 11:53:52 UTC 
Still the same in 3.14. Removing ui-review as per comment 1.
