Pat, we've been working with design (Patricia) to get actual design documents for the tablet greeter. Up until now, their guidelines have been "just copy what the desktop does" because they didn't have cycles for tablet stuff. Now, obviously, tablet and convergence matters more and they are working on visual specs as we speak.

But they haven't finished yet. And I'm loathe to make a redesign in advance of that.

But the issue with real names makes immediate sense. We'll need to (1) update the script that creates the phablet user to set Ubuntu, (2) fix liblighdmqt to return the actual real name, and (3) probably add a hack in unity8 to display "Ubuntu" for a system with a single "phablet" user for the upgrade case.

I'll start on it.
