[REQUEST] easy user-switching

as suggested in this thread: https://forums.plex.tv/topic/98409-swapping-users-from-homepage/

 

it would be easy, enjoyable, and much more user friendly to have a way to switch users upon opening the app,

or within the app home screen.

 

i'm thinking something like netflix: when starting or opening any of their apps (including web), they start by asking which user is watching.

it would be nice to have, for example, one master user who can decide the profiles, and then can enable auto-login for all users.

this way security is not compromised (users can auto login but cannot change their permissions) and usability increases.

This would be a killer feature. That's one of the feature that might make me switch from Plex to Netflix. It's kinda possible to do it using different user accounts, but the experience is really not the same, given that second accounts doesn't have on deck (and other special views)

Early 2021 clean-up: implemented (Plex Home, fast user switching)
