I don't think we can really get rid of it, because we don't show all users in the list, only the most frequent ones. Others with have to click on "Other" to enter their login.

How many users do you think exist on a desktop installed from a livecd I would say no more than four ( parents + 2 children ) more realistic sample only 2 persons or single account ( an couple/individual ) So why not get rid of "other" and show always all created user account..

Maybe not "always", but when the created accounts are less than 4, it make sense to get rid of "other", which is confusing in those cases.

Nicu, will you please fill an ER with this in bugzilla, in order to get implemented?

The place for such a feature request is not Fedora bugzilla, but upstream GNOME, that is the right place to ask for it.

Is somebody (Nicu?) volunteering to drive this? E.g. put an ER in GNOME bugzilla or write to a specific GNOME list
The solution found above sounds good to all this list, we also need to make sure it gets implemented.
