Could this bug be included in the 100 paper cuts as it:

1. Appears to be quite easy to fix (for a developer)

2. Effects the user experience on the initial log on of a default Ubuntu desktop install
    (anytime there is more than one account on a single computer.)

This is a security concern that has been ignored as unimportant for a long time.

Thanks.
