[Bug 1259562]

 

I like this patch.  Two requests, if you don't mind:

1) Can you make it in git-format-patch format so it has a commit message, etc ?
2) Can you do one preliminary clean up patch before this one that moves the existing cases where the cache files are removed into a standalone function, then change this patch to call that function?  This sort of clean up is repeated in two places already, it'd be good to drop the duplication rather than add a third place.

  When you log out from a guest session, the temporary guest account is
  removed - but only almost. The folder /var/lib/AccountsService/users
  gets 'polluted' with files for previous guest users.
