Still an issue as of today 2020-04-13, for Ubuntu 18.04.
Please set this critical immediately, this is a strong security issue
for the use case of multiuser device!
Using a "guest" user to share your device with others is a quite common
use case. Everyone would expect that logging out and pass
Also don't rely on the "affects me" counter above, as for non-power-

I think we have a much deeper problem here: Some apps (nautlilus,

icon context menu, mabye first provided by Unity, borderless windows
etc.) and do not provide a reliable fallback for old desktops.
So if the new features prove
I finally was able to reproduce it. Turns out it happens only once after

Steps to reproduce:

session / xdg autostart locations)
