It really isn't the user levels as a whole complicating things. The
only feature there that's really complicating things is per-user-level
defaults. We can still keep per-user-level visibilities, and the
ability to roll back to the default when a pref is invisible.

Agree that we need to make Nautilus and the whole desktop consistent
here. However I think it might be reasonable to propagate the user
level concept across the desktop, rather than removing it from
Nautilus.
