With an important exception.  There are situations where two or more
      users take turns using a "single user" machine.  Often, it
      would be very nice if (1) files could be "owned", (2) different
      startup-sequences could be defined for different users, and (3),
      users in general could stay out of each other's way.
     
      You can fake these things using cli scripts, and so on, but not
      well.
