I think it is more than just switching users.  I have a multi-boot
system with Ubuntu 10.10 and 12.04 Beta 1 installed, with 10.10 being my
main system.  These are on completely different partitions and drives.
The only thing shared between the two is the swap partition.

When I reboot into 12.04, and just before the login screen appears, the
screen shows pieces of my 10.10 desktop!!   So, to make it clear, 12.04
is showing me pieces of my 10.10 environment, on completely different
installs and users.  And then it shows again, but looks completely
different, right after I log in and before the desktop appears.  I can
see a bunch of icons, windows, webpages, and text from my 10.10 install.

By making use of the bug in Beta 1 of 12.04 where you can grab the top
panel on the login screen and drag it away, I can reveal bits and pieces
of my 10.10 desktop behind the login screen.
