The fragments you can see after the greeter exits and the session starts is the
root-pixmap, which is shown so that there's no flickering until (in Xubuntu's
case) xfdesktop/xfwm4 starts.
However, in the case of nouveau, it doesn't seem to make matters any better.
The greeter bug is fixed then, thanks for confirming/testing!
