We had some strange problems, though. We contacted a school, who would help us test the server under daily use, and made some test users for them, called "test-*their name*". When they, and i, tried to log into those users, the client would freeze, no error message or anything. On the server, the x2goagent would run amok, soaking up CPU power. The problem seems to occur only on users with dashes in their names.
Hm, and I would have expected for it to be usernames with spaces to go havoc (those occur esp. in winbind-ed environments), since the x2go stack has a notorious underquoting of shell variables all over the place.
[Exhibit 1] ./x2goserver_3.0.99.10/x2goserver/bin/x2gostartagent: OUTPUT=

In fact, x2go assumes use of normal chars in traditional environments (A-z,0-9, with no dashes or spaces) but: This is a good chance to start fix it up, right?
