The new design of the Hera version responds to feedback from users of the Juno version and adds some new features. It will always show user names for all users, it shows user backgrounds like cards, so you can find them easier especially those without avatars, notifies when Caps or Num Lock is enabled and has a very distinct 'Log In as Guest' screen when enabled.
