Hi folks,

I'm just wondering a thing, when you'r saying:

"would always come up by default automatically logged in to the guest
account"

I'm worried about the user specific configurations, like wallpaper, custom
menu apps, etc.

I'm just suggesting that by default when you unlock it should show you the
list of users (if more than one) and when you pick one it goes to
homescreen and lets you use the non-critic apps. When you open a critic app
you have to unlock keyring and it keeps unlocked until you lock the device
again.

Cheers,
Miguel Castiblanco
