A real 'tester', gee I dislike that name, would live with the short comings of Rawhide and deal with the problems. If you really need a GUI to setup your system, actually *if* can only use a GUI to setup your system, you should not really be using Rawhide. Rawhide is often broken for some reason or another. It is not for the faint of heart.
I'm not testing rawhide... I'm testing F9. Sure, right now, that's the same thing, of course, but it's still an important distinction, because rawhide is going to be an official release soon, and it should be ready. The differences is basically that "testing rawhide" implies making sure packages work as intended, whereas "testing F9" implies making sure packages are ready to be released. (Am I wrong?) Regardless, no tester should "live with short comings": a testers job is to point out bugs and feature short comings.
The comment on the "need" to use a GUI is completely irrelevant: a tester's job is to point out short comings in an aspect of the system, regardless of that tester's ability to use CLI or GUI, or their preference for either. In this particular case, it's even more irrelevant, though, because as we've consistently pointed out, there is currently NO way to configure gdm login to disable the user list or faces, or to customize the user list, by GUI or CLI tool, AFAIK, and nobody has posted anything here saying otherwise, since I started this thread.
