Title:
  No unity between creating account and lightdm in Oneiric

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  When you create an account with the graphical gnome UI, it does not
  ask for the user to enter a password. But if you log out and log back
  in to that account, lightdm DOES require a password to log in. If you
  do not enter a password for the account before you log out (which
  there is no prompt for whatsoever), you are fully unable to log in.

  Also, there are option is the password section of the Gnome UI for
  account creation such as "ask for password on first log in", that are
  completely useless with lightdm and are VERY misleading to a new user.
  I tried to show a tech friend of mine Ubuntu, and he was almost
  instantly turned off my the lack of cohesion between the log in screen
  and creating users....which is kind of a no-brainer
