This works well with KDE 4.9, but in KDE 4.10, after open new session and than return from this new session to previous user, KDE needs unlocking. Only than and only this first time, after that Plasmoid switching well, without unlocking needs. If someone knows where is the problem, please contact me here.
Please, try via my person repository:
https://build.opensuse.org/project/repositories?project=home%3Azpintar
Package name is: plasmoid-fastuserswitch

reopening settings shows switching is no longer checked

This appplet is aimed at non-geeks but having to cope with tar, sh and cmake makes it a geek-only tool.
The INSTALL script is straightforward, but I guess normal users will not easily get the right development packages required for building.
This widget exists sinc more then two years now and its still not part of the KDE SC.
At least, it should be readily available via the plasma desktop "Get New Widgets"/"Get Hot New Stuff".

Fortunately opensuse build service comes to my rescue as I just discovered that this plasmoid is available as software package on software.opensuse.org, so I don't have to build from source.

As I see, locking do automatically, so for implement this, after switching to user you can send the unlock command:
dbus-send --type=method_call --dest=org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver /ScreenSaver org.freedesktop.ScreenSaver.SetActive boolean:false
I do this for me via ugly hack the sources, but will be good to see this in core.

Tested it and it does respect the screensaver autolock setting when switching sessions. (Although I find that option weird, as I don't use screensavers, a separate option in the plasmoid itself would make it more discoverable, imho)

First of all, very big thanks for this plasmoid ! It very useful I think.
I've a suggestion. In a family context, it is unfortunate to lock our session every time we switch user. Is it possible to add an option to avoid this behavior ? I try with "manager.switchVT" instead of "manager.lockSwitchVT", and all is good.
Thanks !

Is it possible to add translations ?

The only improvement I can think of is to have an option to show suspend/hibernate buttons in addition to (or instead of) lock screen, but I guess that's possible by clicking the red exit button and then the little menu on the shutdown thing.

The first one was that I had to install kdelibs5-dev to get the cmake command to work.
Now, the build process fails at the "make" command. I get these errors:
/tmp/fastuserswitch-0.3.1/sessionwidget.cpp:33:40: fatal error: kworkspace/kdisplaymanager.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make[2]: *** [CMakeFiles/plasma_applet_fastuserswitch.dir/sessionwidget.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/plasma_applet_fastuserswitch.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2
Any one have a solution?
