I agree. In high-school I work for we have user accounts shared between
computers using NFS/NIS. All students and most of the teachers have
individual accounts. Unfortunately there are also people without
accounts occasionally using the computers, so a guest account is a must.
Right now it's just a normal account named "guest", but since it's not
temporary it collects tons of useless files and configuration, and since
it's still shared over network two people are able to log in at the same
time, and potentially corrupt programs configuration.

I thought Ubuntu 8.10 will solve all those problems, so I'm very
disappointed to hear you won't be able to use this account from the
login screen.
