Thanks for the pointer yet it seems not to be an option if someone else is logged onto their own desktop session and is doing real work which is the scenario I need to solve. Also it's much to technical for the users that need this.
I understand the Ubuntu maintainers see their responsibility in packaging GNOME and not in fixing all bugs/adding features that have not been implemented upstream and that seems perfectly valid. I would like to know whether the Ubuntu maintainers do feel responsible to forwarding bugs reported against supported versions of Ubuntu upstream and referencing them here.
I haven't found a bug report that addresses the fact that gdm cannot be configured as server anymore.
Note I'm not necessarily stuck on "XDMCP". If there is some other protocol/package with which one could start in independent remote session in Lucid, I'd be a happy camper.

Anyway these are the reports I found that seem to address part of the issue: /bugzilla. gnome.org/ show_bug. cgi?id= 592976
