Patch both confirmed and unconfirmed. That is, confirmed that with in /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf:

  show-indicators=~power

and after "useradd -m -g users newlyaddeduser && passwd -d newlyaddeduser", login "newlyaddeduser" in through lightdm now results in a better looking /var/lib/AccountsService/users/newlyaddeduser:

  [User]
  XSession=default
  SystemAccount=false

whereas the XSession value used to the mentioned garrbage value.

Unconfirmed in the sense that "newlyaddeduser" still actually fails to log in, supposedly since there no such thing as a "default" XSession on my system: there's only a "mate.desktop" in my /usr/share/xsessions and the users that login correctly have Xsession=mate there. This sounds like a seperate issue -- but on the other hand, if I *do* add "~session" to the indicators, "newlyaddeduser" is correcyly assigned this only one session-type. As such, "default" might still need to be something else?
