Worse and worse!

Of course, the user list helps because the user selected automatically is the only non system user, for which language setting is OK (explain me why) even though it is not written in its file in /var/lib/AccountsService/users/.

But two new bugs appear:
1- the background image set in /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf is not used for this user (uid > 1000), while it is for the system user (if I choose Other and type its login); moreover, the image is removed if I select back the normal user;
2- I have my laptop on a deck, connected to an external screen, and thus have two images of different resolutions on the wider (external) screen; the resolutions are correct for the default image (the one of XUbuntu, used for the normal user) but not for the system user (lower size image is stretched to the other's height, but not width).

Fine, we now have 3 bugs (system language should definitely be the one set in /etc/default/locale, not English). The only positive point (I forgot to mention it earlier) is that if language is changed once (either manually or because the normal user has been selected), it remains to the selected value.
