Description of problem:With two users logged in, pressing ctrl-alt-delete in one login kills that login (as expected) but takes you to the other login without requesting a password

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome3

How reproducible:
3 times out of 3 tries

Steps to Reproduce:
1. log in as user A
2. switch user 
3. log in as user B
4. press ctrl-alt-backspace 
  
Actual results:
returns to user a's desktop without requestion user a's password

Expected results:
return to log in screen

Additional info:
This is f15 installed with preupgrade from f14 which in turn came from 12 and 13. User A and B passwords are the same in this case, have not yet tried different passwords. (Thanks as ever!)

Sorry just realised that I meat ctr-alt-backspace (!) Appologies, a hangover from former windows years.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2012-08-07 18:11:41 UTC
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora
has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is
Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no
longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version'
of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX.

(Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this
occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.)

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen
this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that
we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it
against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on
"Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that
version of Fedora.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:
