Not sure ...
If resolution, depth, refrash are per-User settings, then I'm with you,
BUT!, if those settings are per-Machine settings (which they are in Windows
today) then those are *Pure!* Admin settings and User should not! have
access to them!
- what would happen in remote terminal application setting when user would
screw with resolution ? Black Out the whole server ? :)
- what if user is granted remote desktop Admin terminal session connection
to verify something and again have access to resolution on server ?
- what if plain and simple user in domain have problems with tummy and wants
to change resoltution to black out his screen just because he can ?
- what with baddly written applications ? I bet I know for More Then One!
with which you can have problems because of display settings ?
This is pure Admin setting
