Gunnar, I can't confirm your issue, that brings the guest session back for me, but it's locked, which is a bug in the new unity

<Ctrl><Alt><F2> and then <Ctrl><Alt><F7>

I just updated and tested again, and for me it still behaves as in the description of this bug report.

I don't understand. You sould use <Ctrl><Alt><F8> to go back to guest session. F7 is the first session so yeah it should be locked.
Btw my guest session does not lock.
Also please open another bug for the first comment.

Ok, thanks, so it was my mistake. Then we can consider the issue in the bug description as invalid.

Just hit that one by doing:
- open guest session from the session indicator
- in the guest session pick your user
- go back to your session
- use the indicator to pick the guest session

-> you are back to the guest session which is locked down
