Public bug reported:

The /usr/lib/systemd/systemd-multi-seat-x utility is a wrapper around X
to improve support for multiseat setups.  This utility is a (hopefully)
temporary workaround until upstream X and its associated input drivers
are able to cleanly support multiseat via command-line arguments.

At least gdm requires this utility to support multiseat X setups.  While
LightDM doesn't yet support multiseat at all (see bug #1085841 and bug
#1190581), adding multiseat support to LightDM will be easier if this
utility is available.
