What about the question I asked on the merge proposal then? If the user
changes ~/.dmrc, and lightdm reads from the cache at next login because
HOME isn't yet mounted, it reads old info, doesn't it?

We also have the situation when the user sets a new language at login.
If HOME isn't mounted then, only the cache file will be updated, and if
the user opens language-selector in that session, l-s will read old info
from ~/.dmrc since the cache file isn't even user readable.

As regards GDM, these situations are taken care of by both GDM and
language-selector read from and write to the cache file at first hand
(which basically makes ~/.dmrc redundant). I'm not saying that this is
the only way to deal with it, but I want to make sure that we don't
introduce buggy behavior.
