Since installing 12.10 have noticed that a warning box indicates a process is not shutting down as quickly as it should be ref signon-ui at shutdown time. This could be related to the use of Ubuntu One sign in with relation to the Backup app. If Backup is closed from desktop session an Ubuntu One sign in box appears. After noticing the hidden goutputstream files and doing a websearch then looking here it appears there is no definite cause to this happening. Reading comment #33 did motivate me to note my own observations but do not have programming experience to help identify what is the actual cause of the goutputstream files in home folder. Ref https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/+bug/984785/comments/33 Have noticed these hidden files but did not see them as problem until reading some of the comments here referring to this possibly being a security issue.
