Description Xavier Claessens 2012-09-26 07:48:59 UTC
I think the only important goal of GDM is letting user type a password. However to type a password, user has to take his mouse, click his name, wait for a slow animation, then move fingers back to keyboard and type.

I think last logged user should be selected by default. AFAIK that's what lightdm does.

how many users are registered/visible in this use case - i.e. is this a case of a single-user system?

Myself and "test" :)
