The login screen is mostly driven by 'gnome-shell' code still, so that
might be where a fix will go.

Title:
Show user's wallpaper on login screen
Status in gdm3 package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Before Ubuntu switched from Unity to GNOME Shell the login user
experience was much more appealing.
For every user, when you looped through them on the login screen, the
background image was shown with a nice fade-in visual effect. See this
video for a demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=seQ6C-yEpCw
It would be nice if Ubuntu would again feel similar on the login
screen.
Technically, at least setting a single (system-wide) wallpaper on the login
screen is not difficult (via #lockDialogGroup in
/usr/share/gnome-shell/theme/ubuntu.css). Interested parties may visit this
blog for details:

(TL;DR edit /etc/alternatives/gdm3.css)
