  If I'm too lazy to add this to SDDM before 5.9 we can push this. (and you can treat this comment as a ship it )
  
  If I fix SDDM, then we won't need this.

  ...you'd be surprised. Users are weird. But being weird doesn't mean we get to break their workflow on a whim.
  
  LightDM didn't support login as the same user twice, I got a tonne of reports. One of the distros (red hat IIRC) even used that as a rationale for not switching.
