Description Hicham HAOUARI 2010-05-02 22:52:50 UTC 
With automatic login enabled, logging out via System menu cause gdm to automatically re-login.

Expected behavior :
Logout and give the login window

Actual behavior :
Automatic re-login

As argued in http://bugs.debian.org/578736 this has security implications if autologin is enabled and the disk is encrypted.
