Has GOS ever considered allowing switching profiles via specific PINS.

That way you don't need to show the list of profiles to switch to.

You can just switch by entering it's specific PIN

    Nice concept idea, however i'm not sure if it's feasible software-wise , given the software & hardware implementation of the entire login system.

    lawman A problem with this is that when a PIN is entered it would be necessary to ask the hardware to unlock multiple profiles with the same key to find one that would work, which might trigger the hardware's anti-guessing rate-limiting.

    Basically, the hardware treats guessing as evidence of evil intent, and this approach would require the unlock screen to make guesses.
