The comment is still not really constructive. The gdm code has been
rewritten and the new codebase doesn't have all the options which the
old one had so it's not only a matter of having a configuration gui but
also to bring those options there. Upstream doesn't have any
configuration tool in the new version so one has been added in ubuntu
for the most used option. The possibility to configure themes could be
added back too next cycle but the ubuntu team doesn't have the manpower
to work on adding back all the options which were in the previous
codebase especially the ones not judged useful for most users, that's
why specific issues need to be described so the team can decide on what
to work next there
