Pin Login
A feature I would really like to see and one I would use often is having a PIN login option similar to what a certain OS does that is on most PC's out there, it may or may not have 10 in the name, lol. When I am not at my computer, I keep it locked and I use a fairly long and hard to type password, so it becomes a pain having to type it in every time I have to unlock my pc, so if I could type in a 4-7 digit number would be so much easier. Just an idea, hopefully it gets added one of these days .
Re: Pin Login
Couldn't you already use a password that consists of 4 to 7 numbers?
If your issue is solved, kindly indicate that by editing the first post in the topic, and adding [SOLVED] to the title. Thanks!

I guess I could, lol, but I like having the long password for when I initially login or have to do anything as root.
Re: Pin Login
I can see where you're coming from, a pin would only be good to unlock locally and useless for remote access, startup or sudo so it could be a little weaker than the password.
I assume it would take quite a bit of work on the session manager (or not, I honestly haven't looked) so it would need some broad amount of interest to invest in. That said, I may have found something to poke around on just too see what effort is required. I am looking for a pet project

This was like a bomb in that time and until now because you can built your custom login with flash animations like swf format.
Why plymouth dont implement this? Or someone?
