Allow remote desktop connections when the screen is locked NOTE: For at least some people, with GNOME 47 this extension is causing login sessions to crash when accessed remotely, even when the extension isn't enabled and even when the screen wasn't locked before connecting to the session. If you are running into this problem you will need to uninstall the extension until it is resolved. See https://github.com/jikamens/allow-locked-remote-desktop/issues/13 and https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/-/issues/3839 for additional info. If your GNOME system is running systemd and you are able to log into it via SSH, then you can achieve the same functionality of this extension by logging into the system before you RDP in and using "loginctl" to unlock your screen. For example, I use this as the startup command for the SSH tunnel I have configured into Remmina for remoting into my system: loginctl unlock-session $(loginctl list-sessions | awk '/seat/ {print $1}')

Please remove logs for the end users. Those logs should only be available in debug mode.
These are not debug log messages, these are functional log messages which pertain to the user's account security. I believe that enabling and disabling remote desktop access to a locked session are security events which should be logged, which is... you know... why I'm logging them.
