Title: Support a user-session mode for authenticating Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Bug description: We talked about this in person in Prague. Ideally a greeter could run as in the user's session and act as a lockscreen for the user as well as a way to authenticate/log-in as other users. This would let us avoid running a whole other session for the greeter on the phone, which is memory intensive. It might be easiest for unity8 if that API was still just liblightdm, just running in a special mode. But I'm not picky on how it's done. There may be security questions around this. I asked Jamie and Tyler about it, I'll post any concerns from them.
