Control: severity -1 wishlist Control: tags -1 wontfix Control: reassign -1 glib2.0
Why wouldn't it? This is like taking out a car's wheel and becoming surprised it doesn't drive very well. I can't even think of a scenario why it'd be necessary to omit the initial slash. This is wrong on so many levels. Please refer to the documentation of the g_variant_is_object_path() function[1] and the D-Bus specification[2], which I'm going to quote here: The path must begin with an ASCII '/' (integer 47) character, and must consist of elements separated by slash characters. I'm reassigning it to glib2.0 since it's not a bug in LightDM and there is nothing to fix unless you're suggesting that LightDM provides a leading slash and covers up for the user's mistake or even deliberate choice, which is a really bad practice. The glib folks will most definitely mark it as wontfix/invalid anyway.

A nonexistent problem born from your curiosity. ;)
