Having additional options there come in handy for some purposes. They do 
not inhibit usage but give additional functionality.

The newer version of gdm even has a clock in it. I wondered what 
usefulness for a clock when you only briefly are at login. I would not 
fight to have it removed but wondered why it is there and moved on with 
logging in.
