Why would bash_logout be involved thought? Switching vt should not force 
a logout. I can understand it forcing a lock screen, but not a logout, 
surely?

That didn't solve it for me, unfortunately. I will try again this week 
with a selection of different Debian versions.

To explain a little more about why I used this heavily, my local user 
'ed' would have a normal xfce desktop, whilst my working from home user 
would match the username at $corp for convenience. The rest of the 
family have their own user accounts and we could work in harmony.

What I've found though, is that this issue doesn't occur with 
Elementary. I've not tested with plain Ubuntu. In a way, if the problem 
exists in Ubuntu or one of the other variants then I may have a delta to 
investigate.
