	The following keys were added in this release:

      /apps/panel/global/locked_down

	Disables being able to change the panel properties, creating or
deleting and adding, moving or removing applets.

      /apps/panel/global/disabled_applets

	A list of applet iids which the panel won't allow to be added to the
panel. It will also refuse to load those applets on startup.

      /apps/panel/global/disable_lock_screen
      /apps/panel/global/disable_log_out
      /apps/panel/global/disable_force_quit

	Disables the ability to add these action buttons or access those
actions from the Action menu. If a user already has one of those buttons
on the panel, the button will be made insensitive.

      /desktop/gnome/lockdown/disable_command_line

	Disallows any access to specifying arbitrary command lines. You can't
use the run dialog, edit launcher properties etc.


	Also, the panel correctly respects any read-only keys - e.g. if you set
the toplevel_id_list in the mandatory database you won't be allowed to
add or delete panels.

Cheers,
Mark.
