Same here. I usually use KDE but I can't find it on the menu in Gnome
either. I can run it just fine from a shell.

The best place for this would really be on the *locked* screen. If one
user has locked the screen and walked away, another user could then just
click the "Another user" button and then log in. As it is now, the
second user has to switch to one of the text consoles and log in there
before they can run GDMflexiserver.
