(Hello, I'm new on the list although I've been reading/lurking for a long time now). Yes, smart idea. And there is also the case of "software": for example, when there is only one user (and sudo/root), the Switch user option is not relevant, is it? Anyway, as an average joe, I'd rather prefer useless/removable options to hidden ones, especially regarding the most important part of the GUI, since it may be destabilizing. (Sorry Mark for the private mail, I missed the Answer *all* button *shame*).
