Title:
  Light locker should be disabled for guest sessions by default

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in xubuntu-default-settings package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Some time ago, I've found some discussion about disabling Light Locker
  for Live CD sessions, because a locked live session becomes
  unlockable.

  I'm observing the same behaviour with a desktop guest session: when
  AFK, the guest session locks and becomes unlockable. The only
  workaround I've found until now is customizing the guest session
  following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/CustomizeGuestSession ,
  disabling Light Locker.

  I wonder if Light Locker could be disabled by default for desktop
  guest sessions. I'm not sure if it should be implemented in light-
  locker itself or in xubuntu-default-settings.
