I sure would like to know whats going on as well.  Francis' LDM patch
fixes Auto login but breaks LDM_REMOTECMD and disables access to the LDM
Shutdown option. And since ACPI isn't implemented for the clients the
only way shutdown the clients is to hold the power button down which
isn't good for Gnome or its various applications.... Sigh...

I am in the process of deploying 40 terminals (kiosks) that run a custom
java application.  Because LDM_REMOTE is broken the only way I can get
the application to auto-start is to add a custom start up script to the
Gnome Sessions start up programs.  It sure would have been nice to have
been able to add the entry to the lts.conf file right below the
LDM_USERNAME and LDM_PASSWORD entries.  Sigh again...
