Trying your trick gives the same result: once the password has been
given, lightdm behaves like if it was a wrong password and user can't log!

I am interested in both, it is quite boring that something has been done

problem.... This tends to make the system more secretive.

I googled too, and find some answer related to pam, to ldap.... Nothing
about lightdm!
