[Guessing this is a problem with lightdm]
What I expected to happen:
When a user screen is locked, I expect to be able to switch to another user by
getting to the main greeter screen or by seeing the "Switch User Account" drop
down menu somewhere.
What actually happens:
Using 12.04 beta Desktop. When an Administrator or Standard User locks his
screen, either via inactivity or by Ctrl-Alt-L, there is no ability to switch
to another user. When activated, the greeter just shows the Password entry box
and "Unlock" button. No "Switch User" button is shown (or Shutdown, etc).
