We just need to find two more alternative ways of doing this. Then
there's a good chance that at least one out of all the alternatives
will work and it'll finally be Linux's year on the desktop.
Since user home directories ought to be completely private, a login
screen oughtn't to be able to read files within them. And since
creating a new user is a root/admin activity, it ought to be possible
to specify a user picture at the same time, and store it somewhere
outside of the user's homespace. Changing it later on would be a
problem, though (requiring admin permissions, again - though if you
think of it, it still needs to be, you wouldn't want users in a work
environment putting up genitalia pictures for everyone to see).
