Bug Description
Currently, if you need a custom X server command with some environment variables previously set, you can do something like this in lihgtdm.conf:
xserver-command=env FOO=bar BAR=baz /usr/bin/X (...)
However, this approach is a little bit inconvenient if you only want to set environment, not customize the command line.
It would be handy if lightdm.conf gains a dedicated entry for setting the environment. I suggest the following variants (inspired by systemd service unit files):
xserver-
xserver-
Of course, this idea could be extended to other display servers.
