I really wouldn't recommend using this on a single host - VNC over a local socket just seems like a good way to waste memory, CPU and slow down your desktop to me ... There's already user-session switching in GDM. I don't know much about it, but that's the avenue I'd pursue for this feature. Cheers, Mark.
