Thanks for your report.
I suggested the bash dependency when working with
https://launchpad.net/bugs/678421, and I disagree on "very strange".
Bash's built-in syntax check when sourcing files, which also works
recursively, came in very handy when fixing that bug, and the dash
solution which was considered would have been inferior to making use of
bash.
You are of course free to install and use any shell you want - lightdm
does not mind. But, yes, lightdm does enforce that bash is installed as
well. Have you experienced a conflict between bash and some other shell?
** Changed in: lightdm (Ubuntu)
Status: New => Incomplete
