Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

1) Log in as user USER_A.
2) When logged in as user USER_A login as user USER_B by using ssh with X enabled to the same host (e.g. ssh -X 127.0.0.1 -l USER_B).
3) Wait until screensaver appears.
4) Try to log in again.

Actual result:
Login prompt for USER_B is displayed, then, after entering credentials for USER_B login prompt for user A is displayed.

Expected result:
Login prompt for USER_A is displayed, no additional prompts are required (Mac OS X behaves in this way).
