Yes this is the point. And additional there're some important points for
me:
- I like to use stable software as DM as other people using
Gnome/Unity on same PC are using it too. There's zero tolerance if
one commit makes problems and elsa is bad working for at least some
days.
- It's less effort to only write a greeter then a DM.
- I've written some E/gdm plugin to switch users/sessions. Now with
LightDM it's not longer working, but I could port one again. I'm not
sure if Gnome/Unity is able to do a user session switch with elsa.
