We are looking for a way to permanently remove the Switch User Account function from our install of Ubuntu Unity. Note, this function appears when you right or left click on the user name in the upper right-hand corner. It then displays a list of 5-10 users that have logged in along with the option to Switch User Account. We know that we can do this by defaulting to gnome, but we would like the option of using Unity as well, but without the Switch User Account option.
We have already tried dconf-editor, gsettings and several other options to remove the users name list, Switch User Account option from appearing in the drop-down list. We know this can be done for one user at a time, but we are wanting to do this for all users on roughly 160 workstations.
Some options that we have already tried are:
- How to permanently disable user switching in Gnome 3?

This is a visual of what we are trying to remove:
