Hi,
Presumably in the end it won't be gdm specific, but will also work if
the user wants kdm for example (as I do...) ?
I don't think so. Ideally, we would get all the features that users
care about into one display manager and drop the rest from core (maybe
provide them as alternatives in Extras).
I really only run kdm since I prefer kde to gnome, and if I run gdm I
cannot reboot/shutdown without logging out first. A minor thing but gets
a tad annoying eventually.
If this can be made possible from gdm (perhaps it is and I've missed how
?) I'm happy to use gdm.
