automatically. Whether this should be the default setting would be the

Title:
No wifi access for guest unless a user is already logged in
Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
In 16.04.x guest sessions get no wifi access unless a user is already
logged in, i.e. one has to open a guest session from a user session.
In 14.04 wifi is automatically enabled for a guest session, in 17.04 a
guest needs to enter wifi password & create a keyring.
Test case:
Boot up to a machine using wifi that's password protected, at greeter choose
guest.
Once logged in notice nm-applet is running but no connection.
Click on icon, choose a network, click on it.
