As long as LightDM gains support to login's automatic multiseat feature (https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/1190581), it would be nice if the couple Mir+LightDM also support multiseat for a single multi-headed graphics card.
Currently in X.Org, the only way to do such a thing is launching a bare (no greeter) X server, on top of which one launches nested X servers (usually Xephyr instances), one for each seat.
Maybe I should open this bug in LightDM page, but I'm opening it here because I wonder if Mir could support this feature without the need of nested servers. |

Currently in X.Org, the only way to do such a thing is launching a bare (no greeter) X server spanning all available monitors, on top of which one launches nested X servers (usually Xephyr instances), one for each seat.
