Title:
  Replace ~/.dmrc with AccountsService

Status in Light Display Manager:
  Fix Released
Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in lightdm source package in Oneiric:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  While gdm has switched to AccountsService for storing the session
  type, lightdm stores that piece of info in ~/.dmrc. I suppose it would
  be a good idea that also lightdm makes use of AccountsService for the
  purpose, and drops ~/.dmrc entirely. That way would always the same
  option appear on the greeter if a user moves from gdm to lightdm or
  vice versa.
