​I managed to get this to work following the sysadmin guide (
https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/desktop-favorite-applications.html.en)
and creating different dconf config files in /etc/dconf/db/local.d. I used
puppet to put the files in place and then had a puppet statement that would
run dconf update any time those folders changed.

exec {'dconf update':
    subscribe => [
    File['/etc/dconf/db/local.d'],
    File['/etc/dconf/db/gdm.d']
    ],
    path    => "/usr/bin",
}

​I'm still having trouble because gdm doesn't have all of the settings
available I want inside of dconf (background image, fonts, etc.) but for
that I am replacing the css file that manages those settings.

I use NFS for home space so the users .config/dconf/user file is already
synced (make sure you set the service-db
https://help.gnome.org/admin/system-admin-guide/stable/dconf-nfs-home.html.en).
It has the effect of roaming profiles but really it's just synced via NFS
home space.​
