+ <application>GNOME System Tools</application> has a number of new improvements making it easier and
+ safer to manage users on your computer. GNOME System Tools now works with PolicyKit for authentication
+ removing the "Unlock" button for managing users and services.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>The dialog to create a user has been improved and only requires you to provide the new user's name
+ and will include user name suggestions and upon account creation everything will "just work"! This also includes
+ adding support for encrypted home directories for new users.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>You can no longer lose your own administrative rights accidentally. You will now be prompted
+ for your current password before changing your password so your keyrings and encrypted home directories
+ will not break. When removing user accounts, the ability to delete that user's home directory is now an option.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>When managing existing users you can choose from specific account types rather than having to choose
+ specific cryptic privileges making it easier to add and remove abilities for other users.

- <para>Cheese's user interface has also been optimized for smaller screens, such as netbooks, by moving
