This bug title is worded incorrectly. More accurate would be: Changing user setting in User Accounts from "Login without password" to "Disable this account" does not remove the user from the nopasswdlogin group.
The user remains in the nopasswdlogin group only when going from "Login without password" to "Disable this account". In this case, lightdm will remain set to allow login without a password. After setting a password, the user is properly removed from nopasswdlogin and lightdm behaves correctly, so setting a password in User Settings and then disabling the account in User Settings avoids the bug. I confirmed this in 12.04.4, 13.10, and 14.04 Beta 2.
