Well, that was interesting indeed. It seems like an excellent measure in
the meantime. My main objection against it is that it assumes that all
logins through the affected PAM chain will be to Gnome, however. What I
was intending to do would be a more generic solution (if they wanted to,
even gpg, Mozilla's keyring and others could use it).
