Description

Thanks for making this feature what it should be... I'll admit I haven't downloaded your product yet, but I haven't seen what I MOST want in the screenshots and features descriptions.

(Perhaps it's there and I missed it? If so, please forgive me for wasting your time!)

I think the most glaring omission from the Fast User Switching menu is a "Log Out" menu item. Yeah, I know it's in the Apple menu, but it really SHOULD be part of the Fast User Switching function! It makes sense to see who-all is logged in AND be able to log out on the same menu!

    What do other users think of this? On the one hand I agree with the *logic* of a "log out" menu item being in WinSwitch, but on the other I don't like the idea of duplicating items already available elsewhere in the UI. As such, I'd probably only add this if it could be made optional.

    Ok, I've now implemented this as an alternate menu item (ie. it appears when the Option key is held down).

    Adding the fixed-in-prerelease keyword. You'll be able to get your hands on the fix in the next release; to be notified as soon as it comes out you can add yourself to the announcements list.

    Version 3.2 (final) is now out. Details here:

    Marking as FIXED/CLOSED.
