Public bug reported:

if autologin is enabled in gdm, the encrypted private directory is not
automatically mounted

as ubiquitiy now has an autologin option, this will affect many users
who later manually create an encrypted directory

from the security point of view, no auto mount for auto login this is
certainly good and not a 'bug'; but it is unexpected and should be
documented; also, both ecryptfs-utils and gdmsetup should explicitly
warn for this case

** Affects: ecryptfs-utils (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
