@Ted, thanks for fixing another bug (which was actually the bug you marked as dup) and changing the title to something that maybe suit more with what you wanted to fix but it is really not what the purpose of this report is.

The description is about how pointless it is to show me my name and the space is uses on the panel. My name alone uses more space than the time/date, sound, battery and message indicator together.

I understand it is a design decision to show the user name when there are more than 1 account on the system, even if it is arguable, but at least make it configurable.

For example, even if more than one person uses this system, they never (_never_) switch session but always uses the login menu, and they usually know who they are.

Thanks.
