Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

service lightdm reload

Expected:

lightdm reloads configuration without exiting

Actual:

lightdm exits, taking the X server with it, killing any user session


Even if config refresh isn't supported, lightdm should not quit when it 
receives SIGHUP, or reloading the service will have the same effect as stopping 
it -- definitely not optimal with remotely managed workstations.
