why need people's opinion on this?
i have no tester nor friends using my phone so i wouldnt need multi-user.

@Rox, because multi-user (well, actually absence of the KeyguardMultiUserSelectorView layout when multi-user is activated) causes regular exceptions E/KeyguardHostView: can't find user_selector in layout. Here is a research on this.
So, if few or even none of Ace 2 users need it, I will ask you to deactivate it in CM10.2 as a useless and harmful feature.

@Rox, I agree that 'harmful' is kind of a bit too strong term, but on the other hand those exceptions prove that multi-user wasn't fully implemented, so it's hard to estimate where else it could misbehave.
I see the following cons; 1) flooding logcat with E-tagged messages, 2) probability of hidden issues.
I'm trying to find pros but so far there are none of them.

1) Motivation; why implementing if nobody needs the feature?
2) Those hypothetical hidden issues wouldn't still be addressed.

It only means Samsung has other motives.Nobody uses Samsung Apps seriously either
@Rox, seems nobody interested in multi-user for our device.
I suggest to put "fw.max_users=1" into device/samsung/codina/system.prop. If anybody needs the feature, he or she will be easily able to switch it on. Should I prepare a pull request for 10.2?
I don't need that. Also what advantages has multiuser? Is that like windows multiuser (different apps and widgets on main screen?)
But a guess user option will be perfect (like some lg phone). I don't know that is possible or not. But a guess option which makes some apps locked (like phone app , contacts ,sms) will be usefull. You can give your phone your little brother (sister or child...) and he can play games. You doen't have to concern about it.

Yes... but...
Yes I "try" to configure it for me, my wife and daughter... but... I have a few issues:
I am using CyanogenMod 11-20140327-UNOFFICIAL-kylessopen
1) Can't make a call from any user other than "u0" (first user). this error occurs:
2) Can't activate "ok google" for secondary users
I haven't wrote down all problems, but that is what I have in mind now...
