This means that 1. Anyone installing nvidia binary drivers will pull in nvidia-prime and subsequently lightdm. As a consequence of this they are also going to get the potentially confusing dconf pop-up asking them to choose a DM. 2. nvidia-prime probably won't work when using gdm I haven't looked to closely at how deeply integrated this is with lightdm, however we particularly don't want #1 happening, and it would be nice if #2 worked.
