Auto login feature into desktop

[Neoh Yuen Sim]

Thanks for the reply,

According to the thread reply I can "solve" the issue by setting empty
password for user.

But I would like to comment on the layout of user account. Such issue would
not be raised had it not been the conspicuous switch to turn auto-login ON
or OFF "easily". I mean, I still don't understand why there is such a
button, when it can't function as expected from people who use it?
