Not many users care about multi-user session management. An even tinier number of users care about multi-seat session management (which is when you have mutiple users on the same machine at the same time, with their own screen and input devices). Pretty much every desktop Linux user cares about being able to click options like "shutdown", "restart" and "suspend" in the user interface and have them work. As it currently stands, anyone who wants that basic functionality on Linux - something that's been supported on all other platforms since forever - has to drag along all the baroque undocumented complexity of multi-seat, multi-user support. Why? Well, it seems Red Hat has some customers who sell solutions based on that, or at least used to once upon a time... With the current price of a docking station used to support a single seat in such a setup being comparable to that of a fairly decent refurbished SFF PC, I can't see a huge market for this.
