Description James Westby 2008-09-10 08:36:32 UTC 
First reported at https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/bugs/245809

"Went into "User Settings", choosed a user and opened "Properties". In the tab "User Privileges" it looks like one can actually change the settings (which is confusing). The real annoying thing is - if I get that I have to unlock first I cannot do this in the dialog right away. I have to close the "Properties" dialog, hit the Unlock button, enter the Password, hit ok, open "Properties" again, go to tab "User Privileges" again and start editing.
So my proposal is that every dialog where one has to unlock before being able to edit anything gets his own Unlock button."

Thanks,

James

Should be fixed in 2.27.3. Waiting for feedback from the reporter, which may take some time until it's released.

Closing, should be fixed but original reporter did not answer.
