** Description changed:

- The parameter autologin-user-timeout in lightdm.conf has no effect, and
- when an autologin is set there is no way to choose an alternative
- profile.
+ [Impact]
+ Not able to set an automatic login with a timeout on Ubuntu 12.04.1
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ 1. Enable automatic login in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf:
+ [SeatDefaults]
+ autologin-user=bob
+ autologin-user-timeout=10
+ 2. Restart machine
+ 3. Wait on greeter
+ Expected result:
+ Greeter automatically logs in as bob after 10 seconds
+ Observed result:
+ Remain on login screen, nothing happens after 10 seconds.
+ 
+ [Regression potential]
+ Other authentication may be affected. Tested with lightdm regression tests.
