Bug Description

I don't want my wallpaper to be shown on the login and lock screens. So I used dconf-editor to change the "draw-user-backgrounds" setting to "false".

What I expected to happen:
- The login screen as well as the lock screen would respect the setting (neither would show my wallpaper).

What actually happened:
- The lock screen respects the setting as desired (it no longer shows my wallpaper).
- The login screen does NOT respect the setting (it continues to show my wallpaper).

Now I'm not asking to introduce a new feature or setting, it's already there. All I'm asking is that the login screen be consistent with the lock screen and respect the "draw-user-backgrounds" setting.
