I think the general problem is, some desktop managers try to be a
Security Manager when they should not be. For example, LightDM
provides a guest account that is enabled by default; but not an
account in the system (no passwd file entry). Folks can login using it
in a kiosk-like mode.

I don't know if that applies here, though.
