Fast User Switching

[Peter]

Where is the "New Login" button?  If it's part of GDM, how can it get me a
new GDM screen?  I do use GDM and can start both gnome and xfce from it;
however, I have not seen a "New Login" button anywhere.  This:
http://ignore-your.tv/fusa/ seems to have a "Login Screen" button; there
shouldn't be any reason that won't work, correct?
