Post replies to this discussion to suggest enhancements. If anyone wants to take this code and work on enhancements (or a re-write altogether) please feel free. You can either make a new version or I can combine your enhancements into this one and give you credit in the Script.

Enhancements already mentioned:
1) Add or Delete user information on the fly instead of storing it directly in the script (like google multi login: http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/16341 .)
[I see how to do that, but don't have time right now. I agree this would be a good feature.]

2) Add the ability to switch users without having to click "logout" first.

The latest version (dated 7/25/2011) does all of this. Post a reply here if you would like to see something else.

I'd like to see the ability to export and import the information so I can easily transfer between pc's/laptops. Hope this is possible.

stbs, thank you for the suggestion. I'll think about that. Here are a couple options in the mean time.
Option 1) These are stored as Firefox preferences. You can back up ALL of your FireFox preferences by following these procedures: http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/quick-tip-backup-f...
Option 2) If you just want to save off the preferences for this script, you can enter "about:config" in the address bar and then search for "FBMUL". You can copy these and recreate the preferences on the new PC's about:config page. It's a pain, but it may be easier than typing all of the login info over again.
-I've found a script that does similar settings export/import, I'll try to integrate something similar when I get a chance.

Personally, I'd like a way to see what account i'm logged into currently.
I use another switcher script that changes the word Profile at the top to the user name, but with the new layout on some apps that just started the other day, it breaks it.

it would be cool if it worked on Chrome...
I'm also skeptical about the fact that the password appears in plain text... shouldn't it be encrypted?

The new layout removed the presence of the user dropdown in the header while logged in. Would it be possible to get that back? It was very helpful. Other than that, this script is still amazing.

I made a change so that the menu still shows up when you are logged in using the new FB layout.
