Same as before, it is untouched.

It works with one. I tried with two and with three as well in the
multi-monitor setups I had problems.

Yes. Another workaround that I just found (and which it the reason why I
didn't initially see it with 3 monitors) is to move the mouse from the
primary monitor to another. This causes the greeter-dialogbox to follow.
When it does, the passwort entry gets the focus.
So the initial focus is missing and only gets set when the greeter gets
re-drawn.
So I guess the definition of the greeterbox is lacking the defintion
where the focus should be and it gets set explicitly when the greeter is
re-drawn. This would explain the behaviour.

No.

Yes

I didn't test that yet.

Title:
lightdm fails to start with 3 connected displays but works 2 displays
Status in lightdm-gtk-greeter package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
lightdm fails to start with 3 connected displays but works with 2
displays.
Once lightdm has started and displays the Greeter I can connect the third display without a hitch.
After logging in I can enable the third display
#!/bin/sh
xrandr --output VGA-0 --off --output DP-6 --off --output DP-5 --off --output DP-4 --mode 3200x1800 --pos 0x0 --rotate normal --output DP-3 --scale 1.5x1.5 --mode 1920x1200 --pos 3200x0 --rotate normal --output DP-2 --scale 1.5x1.5 --mode 1920x1080 --pos 6080x0 --rotate normal --output DP-1 --off --output DP-0 --off
When lightdm is started with all three displays connected, it will
terminate and force the Xserver to go down as well, triggering a cycle
of Xserver/lightdm restarts. Disconnecting the 3rd display will bring
up lightdm immediately without a glitch.
