I'd like to agree with Arve's comment above. The main reason I don't like this change is that I can't get to those options with the keyboard. If I could easily get there with the keyboard, I wouldn't mind this change much. (I do tend to agree that system wide settings shouldn't be part of a user switching applet, but that's not as big of an issue in my mind as the inability to get there with the keyboard.)
