I'll tell my Mom that she can use "startx -- :1" followed by Ctl-Alt Fn to switch" instead of her mouse. I will also tell her that ext4 and btrfs are in Fedora and she wil be so happy she will cook a cake for me.
Ok, Kudos for Fedora for this audacious step, it is a good thing. Kudos for Ubuntu for putting efforts in the notification system. It is needed too.

FWIW, my mother has been using 'gdmflexiserver --no-lock' (run from a panel icon) to do fast user switching for several years now. The improvement in recent Fedora releases was to make fast user switching more polished somehow, not to make it possible.

That feature was specifically disabled from Fedora's GNOME, because it previously did not integrate well with Fedora's management of system devices (only the user logged on locally get access to devices such as the sound card).
It is now turned on, after the development of PolicyKit.
