The menu has options to lock the screen, log out and shutdown, but there isn't an option that allows me to switch to a different user. Is there another way to do that or, even better, is there a way to add that option to the global menu? I am using Ubuntu 11.10.

One suggestion is to create either a favourite shortcut in the main menu or a panel shortcut.

To do this, use alacarte to create a shortcut to the command gdmflexiserver

Logout and login

Then search for your shortcut:

Right-click the menu item and choose one of the options as shown.
