Bug Description

The system settings' privacy design [1] has a section "When locked, allow: launcher/camera/notes"

We need to define an configuration layer/interface that let the settings app tell the greeter about those

The launcher option seems like it could reasonably be per-user and kept in accountsservice.

Seems like that wouldn't work as well for making camera/notes available, since that is more system-wide. But I suppose we could stick those in accountsservice under the "lightdm" user and control access via policykit to let any user set it...

well, I assume it means for unity8 to have some sort of acl on what can be started from the launcher on the lockscreen
