It is a long time that the rumors about support for more than one user on Android chase unpretentious foundation, and with the advent of the Nexus 7 could only flourish, underpinned by the belief that a tablet is a tool designed to inherently be used by more than one person.
In reality, this time there seems to be something really concrete that is brewing in the tablet and not so much as Google generally in Jelly Bean.
In fact, Android 4.1 has added support for multiple folders for the data of the same application: in this way each user will have their information stored separately from those of the other, whether it saves a game, rather than browser bookmark or access credentials to app. The system is already present, but still there is no way to add or modify users.
Other minor signals are found elsewhere in the OS, for example in the code regarding the unlocking of the screen, which now includes the event "on UserChanged".
This is not thus gives us a precise date on the actual implementation of multi-user, but since most of the work seems to have been already done is not possible that a future upgrade of Jelly Bean can make it operational. Undoubtedly it would be a great way to further enhance the Nexus 7, and not only him, are you not agree?
