Are you using the KDE version of F22?

Yes. Although this is upgraded from F21 (using the target "nonproduct").

Yes, that is what you'll see.  Not a bug, a feature.  :-) :-)

How could that possibly be considered a feature?

That's some brokenness, this has worked properly since the '60s!
If this is to be the new normal, what is the proper way now to find out whether anyone is currently logged in and using the system? I have a number of scripts that rely on this.

A purely practical, real world example has just arisen. On my Fedora 21 box a yum update has just pulled in a new kernel and nVidia drivers, which mean a reboot when convenient. Now is convenient for me, but typing "who" reveals that I am not alone, so I should schedule it for later.
