Title:
  lightdm.log should not be user readable

Bug description:
  lightdm seems to have created /var/log/lightdm/lightdm.log as :

  
  -rw-r--r--  1 root    root     5166 2011-08-28 12:26 lightdm.log

  I believe that should not be user readable, among other things in there we have
  debug including data lengths from the greeter, login users, then details about the users sesssion
  including the session cookie.
