Having a system compositor could make for an interesting transition between selecting a user in the greeter, and entering your password/PIN at the lock screen in the user session (or a fake lock screen spawned by the greeter if the user isn't currently logged in). I seem to recall one of design's mockups having the lock come in from the right edge when a user was selected...
