We use Terrablock with the Macs here at Dolby Creative Services - login to the Terrablock is, indeed, based on the user name that is logged in to the client computer, and I assign user permissions to the volumes that way.
I haven't seen the issue with drives staying mounted when the user logs out, and a different user logs in, but we don't do that very often, since most of our users have their own workstations at their desks.
