Some apps, like YouTube, allow signing in to multiple profiles directly within the app. Most streaming services have a single sign on, with multiple profiles.

And then there are apps like Twitch, and Spotify, where you can sign in, but only to one account at a time. These apps would be perfect for Apple TV to store login info with the currently active profile. My wife and I have different music tastes, and different twitch subscriptions, and it would be really nice to be able to quickly switch between logins, without having to go through the entire authentication process again.

Right now it seems that the only thing that gets swapped between user accounts is iCloud media and Game Center data. Why can’t it be like any other operating system where each user gets their own preferences, logins, layouts, etc.
