Public bug reported:

Hi,

 I configured GDM to show the chooser by default, so I can select the
computer I want to connect to. When I connect to the local host Gnome
starts and everything works fine. When I use the shutdown menu in Gnome,
I'm offered the option "Switch User", which does not work. It brings me
back to the gnome-screensaver every time instead of starting a new GDM.

I think this is a flaw per design, because, gdmchooser offers me a
network connection to my local host instead of a direct X display, i
think? Can it be fixed?

greetings and many thanks for creating and maintaining this wonderful
system! ;)
