ecryptfs does not work with gdm auto-login

You received this bug notification because you are a member of eCryptfs,
which is subscribed to ecryptfs-utils in ubuntu.
Status in “ecryptfs-utils” source package in Ubuntu: New
Bug description:
if autologin is enabled in gdm, the encrypted private directory is not automatically mounted
as ubiquitiy now has an autologin option, this will affect many users who later manually create an encrypted directory
from the security point of view, no auto mount for auto login this is certainly good and not a 'bug'; but it is unexpected and should be documented; also, both ecryptfs-utils and gdmsetup should explicitly warn for this case
