I think this use case is important especially considering that this is 
definately one of the large potential use cases for gnome in general. 

The question than becomes should these settings actually be in the ui, or be 
moved into some sort of admin tool. I'm not sure of what the best solution 
is in the short term. In general I hate hiding prefs in gconf, but maybe in 
this case it is acceptable. Needs more thought i guess.
