That quite definitely is the long term solution. It has one downside:
Backporting to bookworm-backports and earlier will result in a broken
package that is not (re)started during package installation and
upgrades. Now lightdm is not a package with a long history of backports
so this trade-off may well be a good one and a backport also can revert
this change (if one remembers to do so).

So this mainly is a question of how you want to deal with backports.
