Unfortunately I cannot reproduce #782456 at all, neither with wdm nor
with lightdm (1.18.3-1 from testing where this should be still
present), neither with plymouth-x11 installed nor without, neither
with any theme provided by desktop-base or plymouth-themes.

I only tested with systemd so far as the original reporter of #782456
reported it with systemd as init system.

I think I've rebooted that VM (which I specifically set up for testing
this) now about 50 times and haven't seen any case where the DM (be it
wdm or lightdm) didn't come up properly (except for #860576 related
cases, see below).

But I've only tested it in a KVM-based VM with a minimal installation,
no specific graphics driver, etc. (Not even all Recommends are
installed.)

Well, now I have nothing which I could test as I can't reproduce this
issue at all -- even after having read all of
https://bugs.debian.org/782456. :-/

So I wonder: Shall I upload the fix suggested by Niels anyways? (Not
untested, but unverified.)

Niels: I'd also include a fix for #860576 (wdm: Missing dependency on
an X server) in which I ran into recently and was able to verify and
debug it in this minimal VM setup I intended primarly for this bug
report.
