Hi Thomas,

Could you clarify the use case you are talking about? The cases we have designed for are:

1. Home users, who have a fixed number of users that are displayed in the greeter
2. Network logins where the user list cannot be easily displayed (it is too long or unable to be downloaded)
3. Home/Network logins where security is an issue (they don't want any users being displayed).

Are you expecting case 2 except users that are currently logged in are shown? Or case 2 where the last n users are remembered and shown (as a shortcut to avoid typing common usernames).

I'll open a design task against this so this new case is handled if appropriate.
