Bug Description

When autologin is active the "countdown" should (optionally?) stop on user input (at least on opening the menu to select a different account) in order for the user to have the time to select a different user and type the password even when autologin-user-timeout is set to low values (eg 5 seconds or so).

It is up to the greeter to cancel the timer - liblightdm-gobject provides a lightdm_greeter_cancel_autologin method for this. You need to file this bug against the greeter that is not doing this.
