Honestly, I don't see anything amusing there. If a designer asks for
something, that turns out not to be technically feasible, the techies
say 'no, not possible'.

IF you say 'I want the password entry in the activity switcher', I say
'no, not possible. would diminish security ...', or 'ok, sounds good,
lets do it'.

As simple as that.

Totally agree :)

I might have sounded unkind, and I do apologize if I did, it wasn't
the point. Just wanted to be as short as possible :)
