Title:
  Unity Greeter - Support complex authentication requests

Status in Ayatana Design:
  Fix Committed
Status in Unity Greeter:
  Triaged
Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  The greeter needs to support complex authentication requests from the
  system.  The current implementation has a text line between the
  username and the password box, but this can only support a small
  amount of text.

  The authentication process prompts the greeter with:
  - One or more "messages" to display (could be multiple lines)
  - One or more errors to display (could be multiple lines)
  - One or more prompts to display (with the input set to show or hide)

  In a traditional text login these messages / are displayed on the screen and 
appended to the existing text, e.g.
  login: bob
  password: *******
  You need to change your password, please enter a new one
  The password must be more than 5 characters and contain a mix of letters and 
numbers
  new password: ****
