don't you need to clean up the icon too?
Aside from that, I wonder if we'll run into bug reports after this where
users lose their settings after a domain controller blip.
Maybe it should avoid cleaning up remote users?

an error occurs, errno is set appropriately.

I chose to modify the patch so it makes use of a standalone function.
Sorry, but I'm not enough familiar with git, so I leave it to you to
convert the patch into the desired format.

I like this patch. Two requests, if you don't mind:
1) Can you make it in git-format-patch format so it has a commit message, etc ?
2) Can you do one preliminary clean up patch before this one that moves the
existing cases where the cache files are removed into a standalone function,
then
I successfully tested a slightly modified patch, so I uploaded and
forwarded upstream.

When you log out from a guest session, the temporary guest account is
removed - but only almost. The folder /var/lib/AccountsService/users
gets 'polluted' with files for previous guest users.

Well, accountsservice provides a DeleteUser method, so from an
accountsservice POV you can argue that the correct solution is to call
that method (as is done when you delete a regular user via User Accounts
in gnome-control-center). I don't know how that would be done from a
dash script, though.
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
