disable password when switching user


I have created a passwordless user for my visitors but when switching to it, the session switcher always asks for the password. Where is the configuration file for it ? Can that be changed ?

Does simply hitting the <enter> key at the password prompt allow you to be logged in to that passwordless user's account?

no, it's not like the login screen. The login screen does that but not the user switcher.
