Desktop Linux: The principle of least astonishment (POLA) should _always_ be priority-one with Security. Open $HOME's are a surprise to me and everyone I know.

We've lost the 'Guest" user login since 18.04 and we've lost ecryptfs as an option in the installer. Why not just throw a simple toggle into the installer, to surface this issue, offering admins the option?
