I can confirm this. If I ssh into a VM and run 'w', I see my ssh session:
$ w
 11:14:24 up 1 min,  1 user,  load average: 0.34, 0.14, 0.05
USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
jamie    pts/0    luna.local       11:14    0.00s  0.33s  0.00s w

If I then log into the VM's desktop with lightdm (still logged in via ssh) and 
run 'w', I see:
$ w
 11:15:35 up 2 min,  1 user,  load average: 0.37, 0.20, 0.08
USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
jamie    pts/0    luna.local       11:14    0.00s  0.34s  0.00s w

Ie, the output of 'w' only shows my ssh login.

If I then install gdm, stop lightdm and start gdm and log in via it, typing 'w' 
in my ssh login shows:
$ w
 11:15:45 up 3 min,  2 users,  load average: 1.27, 0.40, 0.14
USER     TTY      FROM              LOGIN@   IDLE   JCPU   PCPU WHAT
jamie    pts/0    luna.local       11:14    0.00s  0.34s  0.00s w
jamie    tty7     :0               11:15    3:05   2.09s  0.09s gnome-session -

The gdm login is correctly displayed in 'w' output.
