Bug description:
  Binary package hint: chromium-browser

  [Impact]
  Chromium-browser does not launch from guest session.

  Fix by Jamie Strandboge:
  "It would be nice if AppArmor could merge profiles, but we can't yet, so we need to do like you initially did: have two mostly identical profiles. Because the lightdm remote sessions are shipping policy copies, the maintenance cost is getting high. I will be abstracting out the guest rules into abstracations/lightdm and then have a small snippet using a child profile in abstractions/lightdm_chromium-browser. The guest and remote lightdm profiles can just include these and all the policy is in the abstractions. Using a lightdm.d directory is a good idea, but upstream AppArmor is currently discussing how to best handle .d directories like this, and I'd rather not add another one until that discussions is finished."

  [Test Case]
  Login to the guest account after booting in Ubuntu Precise and try to run Chromium-browser.

  [Regression Potential]
  Upstream work on AppArmor was considered here and a child profile was added not touching the other policies so the regression potential is pretty low.
