Bug Description

session.c contains:

    /* Use session directory from configuration */
    /* FIXME: This should be sent in the greeter connection */
    config_path = g_build_filename (CONFIG_DIR, "lightdm.conf", NULL);
    config_key_file = g_key_file_new ();

Which makes it very difficult to choose sessions in lightdm-gtk-greeter if you are using a non-standard configuration file (as I am doing on NixOS).
