They could still help visually. No worries; once testing has seasoned
the concepts we will bust out an icon set. If you want to stay with
GNOME styling, no worries.

Select Mode allows for a more refined experience :)

Maybe. 'Language', 'Localization', and 'Language and Region' are the
options; thoughts from others?

This sounds interesting but I am unsure of what better represents
encrypted storage than the padlock (which ignores the storage part)
other than a box of some sort... searches aren't very fruitful :(

This doesn't support the removal of list items of choice (restricts
experiential freedom).

Some are, such as 'Administrative Account (Provides SU access)' and 'MAC
Spoofing (Hardware Protection)' right?. Propose alternatives to
'Network Configuration (Connection Settings)' and 'Desktop Camouflage
(Virtual Mustache)', which still seem technically accurate.

Yeah.

Do you mean there is restriction coded into the function, such that
restricts length and stuff? If so, can we do the one that allows the
most freedom and just label it 'Passphrase'?

IDK. It seems like the label:

1. Is inside the field (or appears to be)
2. Has a background color

But it isn't important, so do what you think is best.

"the end of the second sentence, as seen here" was what I meant; my bad.

What would it be?
