Description ubuntugul 2013-06-01 17:33:37 UTC 
Currently, users who log in without a password are unable to choose the session during the login process. I have to enable password for such users on my home desktop, so that the option for selecting session becomes available, then make the new option the default session for that user, and finally disable the login password for that user again.

i think this is a dupe, but i can't find the other bug off hand.
I guess we need to insert an extra click to continue if PAM doesn't ask any questions.
