Well, the thing is: This change broke session management and therefore I think it's fair to comment on this right here.
Serious question: Are you actually using lightdm yourself? I mean, it's obviously completely broken. It doesn't even restore the settings on the same machine these days anymore. I have filed another bug report (#1069494) on this and I don't understand why you ask me to discuss this on an ubuntu mailing list. This is an upstream *bug* and therefore this belongs to the upstream bug tracker. We have the same problem in Debian as well, so it's not an issue of what distribution is used.

I suppose it would be a good idea that also lightdm makes use of AccountsService for the purpose, and drops ~/.dmrc entirely. That way would always the same option appear on the greeter if a user moves from gdm to lightdm or vice versa.
