Hi Mike,

For display-manager mode, --close-disconnect makes sense.

For minidesktop, the user is recommended to log out of the MATE
desktop session. This can be enforced by some auto logout (or killer?)
feature in MATE.

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

Hehehe...

If --close-disconnect is added to X2Go Client in minidesktop mode,
what exactly happens when ending an X2Go session? Does X2Go Client
disappear entirely? The wanted behavious is that the X2Go Client
application stays on the desktop and is available for another X2Go
session login without having to relaunch the X2Go Client application.

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.

Ok. The icon is IMHO sufficient.

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

Good. Then I will add --close-disconnect for minidesktop, too.

However, I agree that the user name should be removed from the login
mask. Maybe we need to amend this in X2Go Client upstream and discuss
that feature (maybe a new cmdline option) there.

Yes, good idea.

Not on my top prio list... I'll bring it up when looking into X2Go Client code next time.
