lightdm multiseat: no login possible

In Progress
Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
In Progress
Status in “lightdm” source package in Precise:

Bug description:
I am testing a multiseat setup with precise:
One XServer is running on intel graphics card, a second one is running
on a DisplayLink (usb video) device.
The two greeters are displayed, but without password fields shown so
it is not possible to login. If auto-login is enabled in lightdm.conf
multiseat works fine.
