The only bug is that the checkbox is unchecked by default, while it
should be checked by default. Looks to me like that's very easy to fix.
I couldn't find any other bugs. This little bug just needs to be fixed,
so this option can be included in the final release of Ubuntu 10.04.

If Ubuntu 10.04 doesn't have the feature to disable the face browser,
I'm not going to upgrade. Showing a list of available logon names is way
too insecure.

In my opinion that's not an option for corporate users. An operating
system just has to have this functionality by default. There shouldn't
be any need to use any third party applications, only to disable some
insecure feature.

Importance of bugs on Launchpad is a fail. After all those years this bug is 
still at the wishlist:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/11334
That bug really doesn't belong on the wishlist. That's a bug which had to be 
addressed years ago.
