Title:
  disabling guest login in lightdm also disables account switcher in
  unity

Status in “indicator-session” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I need to disable guest logins for lightdm, and did so by adding the
  line "allow-guest=false" to /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf.

  However, this also has the side-effect of disabling the user-switcher
  in the indicator area of Unity after I log in, which is bad. I want
  the user-switcher, I just don't want guest accounts enabled.

  This is true for Oneiric, and presumable for Precise as well.
