Jim, the fix went into 12.10, not 12.04 yet.  We didn't squeeze it in
before because the archive was already frozen for 12.04.1.  But now that
it's out, there's nothing stopping us.  Robert, can you look at that?

  When I pressed the Escape button on Login screen, LightDM zombie
  process is created in the state of defunct. I used "top" application
  to view the number of zombie process. The more I press the Escape
  button in Login screen the more LightDM zombie process is created.

  I think this bug is similar to the following Bug #962932.

  Date of observe bug: 2012-04-27
  Ubuntu 12.04 LTS

  I change LightDM with GDM version 3.0.4 and the zombie are gone.
