There is no way Apple will pass on the revenue opportunity of making you buy more than one iPad per household buy not letting you have privacy with multiple accounts.

They could also hardcode OSX for one user account too in that case.

I doubt it would cost sales, especially when any iPad owner could have bought 3 small Android tablets for the same price.

1 Android tablet, 1 iPad might be a solution for a couple that includes a cross-platform mobile developer.

I bought my girlfriend her own iPad. Unfortunately, we are a sleep-over couple, and she always leaves her iPad home and commandeers mine, leaving me to squint at my iPhone. (Which fortunately is a Retina one.)

It'd be neat if she could connect them and use your iPad as a dumb terminal for the phone.
Actually, that's exactly the sort of thing she'd like and would do!
