For all those deactivating SAK, please give this a quick read:

Thanks for that
It really is up to you as to whether or not login
spoofing is a concern
on
your machine, but I work with multi-user systems in a large environment
where login spoofing is a definite concern. Therefore, NOT having an
SAK
option is a blocker that would actually force the use of Windows
clients.
OK, understood. So at my little private network that is no thread.
I think the biggest annoyance was "the same keys" (at least to me). Maybe
a more UNIX like combination will ease the pain?
What would you suggest? We should be careful of changing this just so
that it is different from Windows though, as it not only introduces
confusion in users who need to use both systems, but also smacks of "Not
Invented Here" syndrome. :-)
And a text modification, which hints to the
"information, why" and the
"way to deactivate, if save"..
This is a good idea. There seems to be a lot of user confusion over the
role of the SAK in system security, and this should be addressed somewhere
in the control center or other configuration dialog(s).
