You have been subscribed to a public bug by a7x (a7x):

systemd-logind is arrising to replace ConsoleKit in several Linux
distributions (Fedora, Archlinux, Mageia, etc.). It fills the lack of
proper multiseat support in ConsoleKit, which is being slowly
deprecated.

At the moment, only GDM 3.4+ is fully compatible with systemd-logind,
which makes it difficult to configure multiseat for other desktop
environments than GNOME, specially those suitable for non-accelerated
graphics, like XFCE and LXDE.

LightDM is becoming the default login manager for such lightweight DEs,
and it will improve greatly the multiseat support in these systems when
it's fully systemd-logind compliant.

I believe that, for the moment, both ConsoleKit and systemd-logind
support could coexist in LightDM code.
