That is the design, all acounts equally affected.
There are four alternatives.
1. direct manipulation via the registry
2. apply via policy to all accounts except one or a
    few that are exempted by being denied full control
    on system32\GroupPolicy (with this needing to be
    removed in order to modify the policy settings)
3. adapt from directions in

4. third-party products (which essentially do 1)
