Set the login Screen Resolution
Registered by

Currently you can default a resolution for any user.
This however does not effect the login screen for gnome, kde or other GDM's;
X picks the first resolution in the screen config in /etc/X11/xorg.conf
So if you have a the line
Modes "2048x1536" "1920x1440" "1280x1024"
etc, on a 22 inch CRT, you get a very nasty login screen
However X picks the first in the list - so if we had a applett that allowed you to change the order (pick one to be the first), then the login screen resolution could be configurable;
This would also effect the default resolution for all users.
so a good order would be
Modes "1280x1024" "2048x1536" "1920x1440"
