I installed liblightdm-gobject-1-0_1.2.3-0ubuntu1 and lightdm_1.2.3-0ubuntu1 on Precise with the following results:
* Timed autologin does not work at all with unity-greeter (though I see it's still marked as "In Progress").
* When switched to lightdm-gtk-greeter, the user is authenticated after the timeout but the login screen will still prompt for session selection and a push of the Login button. Also, no visual countdown/other display of the timeout.
* Timed autologin only works for the first time lightdm is started, it no longer works after logout from a session. (Immediate autologin should not work after logout, but timed autologin should.)
As such, version 1.2.3-0ubuntu1 does not in my opinion fix this bug on Precise. Will have to retest when the unity-greeter fix for Precise is available.
