Note this bug is about making a greeter that can choose which server to
use.  To setup lightdm as an XDMCP client always connecting to the same
server you can use:

[SeatDefaults]
xdmcp-manager=your.xdmcp.server

Title:
  Add XDMCP client support

Status in Light Display Manager:

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I have extensive experience with systems multiseats. We use XDMCP at
  the Federal University of Parana with single and multiple terminals.
  We want to remove gdm altogether due to their problems. It is
  envisaged something like the gdmchooser or a way to implement a custom
  menu in lightdm?

  In GDM we use X -indirect to provide a menu by gdmchoose with xdmcp
  servers and after choice selected, client try X -query
  with_selected_server

  thanks
