Worse and worse!

Of course, the user list helps because the user selected automatically
is the only non system user, for which language setting is OK (explain
me why) even though it is not written in its file in
/var/lib/AccountsService/users/.

But two new bugs appear:
1- the background image set in /etc/lightdm/lightdm-gtk-greeter.conf is not used for this user (uid > 1000), while it is for the system user (if I choose Other and type its login); moreover, the image is removed if I select back the normal user;
2- I have my laptop on a deck, connected to an external screen, and thus have two images of different resolutions on the wider (external) screen; the resolutions are correct for the default image (the one of XUbuntu, used for the normal user) but not for the system user (lower size image is stretched to the other's height, but not width).

Fine, we now have 3 bugs (system language should definitely be the one
set in /etc/default/locale, not English). The only positive point (I
forgot to mention it earlier) is that if language is changed once
(either manually or because the normal user has been selected), it
remains to the selected value.

Title:
  Language selection always falls back to English

Status in “accountsservice” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I upgraded two amd64 computers from 13.04 to 13.10, and discovered on both that the language is set to English (whereas I selected French language at the beginning of the upgrade).
  Moreover, each time I set it back to French, dragging both French (France and Canada) and some English (UK & US) on top of the default English in the language selection list, default English comes back on top at next login.

  I even tried to modify my .pam_environment (in console mode) and the
  /etc/environment to set fr_FR as the default, no way: gnome-language-
  selector seems to force default English as default at each connection!

  Hopefully, I do understand English, but this is turning me mad.
