Hi Ava,

This looks a good solution. I just have two questions about this:

1. To login with same id, will this invoke conflicts on each user's
profile? Lots of applications has their own profiles when the
application is running, and will read/write data to its profile, this
might be a problem.
2. Could community users have the privilege adding a new account on test
machines? If they could, this can resolve the problem in #1.
