Bug Description
While gdm has switched to AccountsService for storing the session type, lightdm stores that piece of info in ~/.dmrc. I suppose it would be a good idea that also lightdm makes use of AccountsService for the purpose, and drops ~/.dmrc entirely. That way would always the same option appear on the greeter if a user moves from gdm to lightdm or vice versa.
