Seems to me that it simply means you can have more than one account on the system like multiple users.  I, myself, have usually created an admin user and a day to day user for security reasons (two accounts owned by one person).  The ambiguous part seams to lead one to thinking you can fork post log in depending on purpose of session, which, excepting in a ldap or some-such set up, doesn't quite fly.  Linux is built on simplicity and the path of least resistance here would be that a user can create multiple accounts each serving a specific perpose.  Sure, with a few tweaks the two or more can be seamless short of purpose; but, at the core they are separate accounts on the system.

my two bits, hih
