Title:
  Notice of expiring password in greeter not really visible

Status in “unity-greeter” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “unity-greeter” source package in Precise:
  Fix Committed
Status in “unity-greeter” source package in Trusty:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Messages that are shown after authentication is complete are not seen as the 
greeter immediately closes and the session starts. Examples of messages are 
warnings that the user password will expire soon.

  [Test Case]
  1. Make new user
  2. Make user account set to expiring with chage tool. (pick yesterday for the 
date here)
  $ sudo chage -d 2014/04/29 -M 2 <username>
  3. Log into this user from the greeter

  Expected result:
  User is informed that their password is about to expire.

  Observed result:
  Message displayed briefly before greeter closes and session starts. (On fast 
systems may not be visible at all)

  [Regression Potential]
  Since this is a behaviour change in how the UI presents authentication 
prompts there is a risk that other authentication cases might be adversely 
affected. Tested manually using the unity-greeter test mode which simulates 
many of these cases.
