Ok, as far as I understand it, from the logs and this mail: * X wasn't working fine in virtualbox because of missing driver. This lead to the initial, not working state, but is unrelated to lightdm * then you restart lightdm from ssh, with X11 forwarding enabled. lightdm sees the DISPLAY variable and interpretes that the user wanting a display in Xephyr. I think the support in lightdm is fine (it's actually useful), though it might be a little more documented. You should take care of your environment, and if you can't, you should use invoke-rc.d (and not directly /etc/init.d scripts) which will do the environemnt cleaning for you.
