Still an issue as of today 2020-04-13, for Ubuntu 18.04.

Please set this critical immediately, this is a strong security issue
for the use case of multiuser device!

Using a "guest" user to share your device with others is a quite common
use case. Everyone would expect that logging out and pass the device to
another person would benefit from a eCrypt FS user homdedir setup.

I myself usually log out and set my device to standby on a daily
routine. That has me left unprotected by a while now it seems. I usually
log out when taking the laptop to unsafe spaces like traveling,
conferences and events in public spaces etc. I had expected that logging
out would keep my data safe to some level.

As this is a regression too, many already adapted to logout-is-safe
behaviour.
