I someone nicks my laptop, I want them to have to figure out my username *and* password to get near my data, not select my account from a list. By default they're presented with a list of valid user accounts and only have to guess the password. Strong password policy notwithstanding, this compromises the security of my data - I use encrypted LVM for / and /home and encrypted home directories on top of that, so they couldn't get at my data with a live CD without guessing my LVM passphrase and my password.
