That's not true. In fact, I can change several messages on the screen by
modifying the resources in logonui.exe.

I have a digital persona fingerprint reader that puts a window on top of the
welcome screen so I know it can be done, I just need some API pointers. I
would expect to be able to customize the logon just like I've done for the
domain logon screen using a custom Gina.dll. I can't find any documentation
on making this to work with Fast User Switching.
