It is very usefull if you use the forum in public places, if you don't want to impersonate somenoe who worked on the PC before you and forgot to log out...

yes,

but then you have to press "logout", "log in", enter login and pwd, find the thread your wanted to reply to, and finaly press the reply button again... and _normally_ (I might hope :D) such a button as "change user" does all this automatically (well except the entering of your login and pwd of course). Dunno why the one on this forum doesn't as it would be a big shortcut. Maybe the functionallity on this board is intended to be somewhat different, but because nobody can/should have 2 accounts it isn't enabled, dunno... however that is what such buttons normally do; provide a shortcut to switch users so you don't have to press that many buttons and find the thread again you wanted to post in.

nope, just sends you to logout.php then the index.

O.P. RE: New thread/username.
That's exactly why I questioned its usefulness in the first place.
