As an aside, I was thinking when I added guest support to LightDM it would be good to make an AddGuest method to A-S and leave it to A-S to do all the guest account work. In that case it would allow A-S to correctly clean up when the guest account was removed. We could also mark the guest accounts as "delete on reboot" so A-S could properly clean them up if LightDM messes up.
