** Description changed:

  $ grep user /etc/passwd
- user:x:1000:1000:user,,,:/home/user:/bin/bash
- useri:x:1000:1000:useri,,,:/export/home/user:/bin/bash
+ scott:x:1000:1000:scott,,,:/home/scott:/bin/bash
+ scotti:x:1000:1000:scotti,,,:/export/home/scott:/bin/bash
  $
  
- These two accounts are collapsed into just useri when presented via lightdm.
- Ordering in /etc/passwd doesn't change things.
+ These two accounts are collapsed into just scotti when presented via
+ lightdm.
+ 
+ Ordering in /etc/passwd doesn't change which account is selected, and
+ this ordering is inconsistent with other programs such as ssh which pick
+ the first line when doing getpwuid().
+ 
+ The switch user account menu in the unity panel instead of account name
+ displays "Invalid UTF-8".
