Yes, we all wish that people would follow recommendations...

With '--close-disconnect' added, the X2Go client is closed after the 
user logged out from the server, but the X2Go Client icon stays on the 
desktop.

If the next user clicks this icon, the X2Go Client appears in no time 
with a clean login window.
