Try the following:

- Log in a gnome-classic session
- Select "Switch User" in the top-right menu
(you are now on lightdm, your former session is supposed to be protected by a password)
- Switch to a random TTY
- Switch back to the graphical session: you are now in your first session, without entering any password.

This seems to work only with the combination of gnome-classic and lightdm.

No problem with Unity or Gnome-Shell with lightdm.
With GDM3, no problem with gnome-classic.
