I have linked my Yahoo and Google accounts with Facebook via the Account Settings. Both of them now appear in the Linked Accounts list. Displayed immediately above them is the following:
If you are logged into one of the accounts below you will automatically be logged into Facebook.
Yet when I navigate to http://www.facebook.com/, I am still prompted to enter my Facebook username and password, whether I am logged into Yahoo, Google, or both.
