So, once again: do we think it makes sense to consider desktop user

Has anyone who was active in the previous discussion changed their
mind
on this?
In the past five years, quality has generally gone up across the entire
desktop, and Fedora's reputation has benefited accordingly. Maybe we
had bigger issues to deal with back in 2015 and focusing efforts on
single-user systems was a reasonable decision when deciding which bugs
we'd have to live with and which we had time to fix. Nowadays, user
switching has been working well for a long time, so we should probably
not break it. My opinion hasn't changed: user switching is basic
desktop functionality and ought to continue to work reliably for most
users; even if we optimize for single-user systems, we don't want
multi-user to be busted to such a degree that it brings down our
reputation for quality. (Of course, as in any blocker decision, human
judgment should override. If there are bugs in obscure corner cases, of
course obscure corner cases should not be blockers.)
