Worth considering delayed autologin for Fedora 8. But keep in mind the
_only_ reason we show the login screen is such that the user can start
AT's (e.g. screen reader), select the language etc. etc. I imagine it's
also useful for Jumbo Live DVD's with both GNOME, XFCE and KDE. Then you
would have three users; one for each desktop environment. You would even
be able to fast-user-switch between these...
