Won't this cause problems if the user has switched to make way for
someone else (perhaps it's a shared machine), the second user has
logged out and the first user hasn't unlocked their session to carry
on? If there is unsaved work in that first session, presumably it
will still be lost when the shutdown occurs.
Yes. I have yet to see such use case in a school and in an office,
which is the target audience for shutdown-at-night. So in such
environments, it is better to not install shutdown-at-night. For the
schools I know about, the users log in when they leave the computer
and shutdown-at-night work correctly.
