I don't think it's acceptable to impose a behavior change in such a way that someone with a sane configuration is unable to log in after upgrading --- except through a virtual terminal or ssh in order to make further changes to the configuration after googling the problem. This is the sort of thing that is pushing people away from Ubuntu.
