Comment 11 for bug 1066225

I've been giving this some thought:

Under nix law each user account must have a password, whether or not automatic login is enabled.

Whilst it seems illogical to Encrypt /home when automatic login takes place, there are use cases where an Encrypted /home despite Autologin makes sense, perhaps where /home is on a separate device.

To clarify perhaps creating a line of separation between "Require my password to login" - "Log in automatically", with additional text "Secure my Documents, Information and Data"

Remember, some windows users will not know what "home folder" is. I know that sounds crazy, but it's true. They think it's "My Documents". I'm pitching for the lowest common denominator here.

Finally thinking about said lowest common denominator, would it help install simplicity if the default was "Encrypted, Require Password Login" and these questions hidden behind and Advanced > section ?
