Bug Description
[Impact]
Can't "switch user" from inside GNOME Shell when using lightdm. This is broken high-visibility functionality.
[Test Case]
* Log into GNOME Shell
* Click on the User Menu
* Select Switch User
Nothing happens, but the expectation is that lightdm would appear.
[Regression Potential]
Light. We already had this patch in before during quantal, but then it got accidentally dropped.
