Public bug reported:

When the root filesystem is full, LightDM and GDM loop back to
themselves after a couple of seconds instead of starting the main
desktop.

Ideally the user should be warned that it is not going to be possible to
proceed, and what they need to do in order to allow login to proceed
(make space available on the root partition, rather than their home
partition).
