This means that both the user granted permissons by ACL, and the user
granted permission by being in the right group will have access to the
device. In other words, if your user had access without logind/CK s/he
will still have access with.

The problem might be that programs now rely on logind/CK to _take
away_ permissions from inactive users to make sure that at most one
user has access to the device at any given time.
