My bad, I didn't explain well what I understand.
Let's say I'm user A and I'm working on a document. Now user B needs a
quick login, so I let them to switch user to their account. When they
finish I switch back into my user and I want to be able to work again on
my previously opened document - I should not have lost all my work when
I switched users.
That's also what I mean.
The steps I described were just a corner case to describe what I
currently observe when switching users: even if I don't really switch
between users, but I choose "switch user" and the login again on my
user, I see another session opened on VT2 instead of logging me back on
existing session on VT1.
That's what I don't mean. If I switch to the same user on VT2 I want a
*new* session. If I switch back to VT1 I continue with the old session.
If both VTs are in the same login session, I don't see the point of
this if we already have virtual desktops and Activities (in fact I've
never really seen the point of Activities either, but never mind).
