yes, it is a security issue.

Some staff person A will be able to watch what staff person B is  
doing. Even worse, staff person A can interfere with staff person B's  
session. This can also happen unnoted by staff user B in times that  
staff user B's session is suspended. This setup will be highly  
compromisable from internal.

For your remove home on logout problem, you maybe could look at  
pam_guest (it is in Ubuntu, not sure about other distros).

Greets,
Mike
