Having additional options there come in handy for some purposes. They do
not inhibit usage but give additional functionality.
The newer version of gdm even has a clock in it. I wondered what
usefulness for a clock when you only briefly are at login. I would not
fight to have it removed but wondered why it is there and moved on with
logging in.
