Public bug reported:
When you create an account with the graphical gnome UI, it does not ask
for the user to enter a password. But if you log out and log back in to
that account, lightdm DOES require a password to log in. If you do not
enter a password for the account before you log out (which there is no
prompt for whatsoever), you are fully unable to log in.
Also, there are option is the password section of the Gnome UI for
account creation such as "ask for password on first log in", that are
completely useless with lightdm and are VERY misleading to a new user. I
tried to show a tech friend of mine Ubuntu, and he was almost instantly
turned off my the lack of cohesion between the log in screen and
creating users....which is kind of a no-brainer
