If I'm reading the initial report correctly, it has the underlying
presumption that there are only two desktop users. In a system with user
Z in addition to users X and Y, I wouldn't expect to returned to user
Y's (locked) desktop on X's log-out, but to a gdm login so that *either*
of the other users Y and Z can log in from there.

In fact I agree on the point of the report that user switching is
untransparent, but do so because of the opposite reason: in a three-user
system, when all three are logged in, being presented with the locked
screen of another user when logging one out is what makes the switch
untransparent. What I'd expect to see is the gdm login. That is because
usually there's no way for the system to know which of the remaining
users is about to return to his/her desktop.
