@Jeremy, that gdm commit suggests it's not a technical reason but that
they assume that if wayland is not using in gdm that's because it's not
working on the configuration so there is no point listing a session
which is not going to work

** Description changed:
In an up to date Ubuntu 17.04 amd64 vm, if I:
1. install ubuntu-gnome-desktop
2. select lightdm as the default
3. sudo service lightdm stop ; sudo service lightdm start
4. login choosing 'GNOME Wayland'
the screen goes black with a flashing cursor in the
gdm3 runs using Wayland by default. If it can't run Wayland, then it
hides the GNOME on Wayland session. That implies to me that it is
required for the login greeter to run Wayland?
