didrocks, I will also work on an upstreamable solution, but I am not very satisfied with your unwillingness to see things from my perspective. You have essentially broken GDM3 for all Ubuntu derivatives, forcing your theme upon them, and then having no desire to work on any solution to remove this hard-coded theming

Take, for instance, pop-session, that installs /usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/pop.css and /usr/share /gnome-shell/modes/pop.json In order to supply a custom GDM3 theme, which is currently hardcoded, the ubuntu.css file must be replaced with this pop.css file. This breaks ubuntu-session, causing it to have a different shell theme than expected. What would be desirable is for the GDM3 CSS file to be hardcoded to gdm.css, which would be a symlink to the correct stylesheet for the flavor. This would allow multiple GNOME Shell sessions to be installed at the same time.
