Description Harald Sitter 2014-05-27 09:13:40 UTC 
when a user has one or more running processes the system will refuse to delete that user (rightfully so). however, user-manager apparently has no GUI backing for this case which results in no visual feedback at all.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. create user
2. login on tty and run top
3. try to delete user

Actual Results:  
polkit auth comes up and then nothing happens

Expected Results:  
should throw an error that $user has shit running and possibly even offer to kill all running processes or bring up ksysguard or somesuch business.
