Public bug reported:

Version 1.2.3-0ubuntu1 of lightdm (in Precise) fixed timed autologin for
the initial startup (see bug #902852), but timed autologin still does
not work after logging out from a session.

It is logical that *immediate* autologin doesn't work after logout, but
the purpose of *timed* autologin is to allow other users a chance to log
in, and to log in a default user if no one does. As such, timed
autologin should work every time the login screen is presented (and
there are no users logged in via lightdm), i.e. also after logging out
from a session, not just the first time lightdm is started. (This is
also how it worked with gdm in Lucid.)
