Title: Lock screen backdrop behaviour Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Since the final release of 14.04, a change was made to Unity to remove the option to use the old LightDM locker, which removes the ability to have a different backdrop while locked! This is a problem for a corporate deployment! In my office I cannot afford to have some outlandish backdrop displayed on it's own while it's owner is not there, so I was using the LightDM's login screen and lock to display the corporate background... but now, I cannot... so currently I have to physically switch off my screens when I leave my desk. In all the devel versions until the final release version in 14.04, you could select the locker and revert to LightDM from ccsm... therefore allowing the option to have an alternate more corporate backdrop for login screen and lock screen... I think this is quite important in a corporate environment. The background is set in dconf, as org.gnome.desktop.background .picture-uri.... and that's great, but there is also org.gnome.desktop.screensaver.picture-uri whcih isn't honoured... perhaps the new lockscreen could honour this value if it points to something which exists... the option could be exposed from the settings for the lockscreen later if desired. I'm not sure why the option to use the old locker was removed only at the last second.
