than a small few accounts on a machine and it is a very bad security practice to display to any passerby what are valid logins on a given machine. Another gross anti-security misfeature is to have your name permanently stuck on a bar of a Gnome desktop for any shoulder surfer to see when you happen to be using your laptop in a public place.
security by obscurity? oh come on ... I bet I can guess at least one valid user at your system ... is that "root"? :-) do you have some stats, could you prove me wrong if I dare to estimate there is less than 1% of user accounts on personal machines which do not fall into one of those categories: - first or last name - initials - username (nickname) used on irc/IM/in email ... - real life nickname (or how the person in question wishes to be called) - predictable username constructed according to some company policy ?
