Hello Marc, or anyone else affected,
Accepted lightdm into saucy-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lightdm/1.8.5-0ubuntu1
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.
Please help us by testing this new package. See

Thanks Marc, could you check if that's fixed in trusty or with the
version waiting in the saucy SRU queue? That seems similar to bug

The lightdm version in the saucy SRU queue is the one I just pushed out
as a security update, and it definitely is affected.
I can also reproduce this with 1.9.2-0ubuntu1 in trusty.

Found the problem - while AccountsService doesn't return system users
when calling ListCachedUsers() it does generate the UserAdded signal
when a system user is created (e.g. by calling FindUserByName()). The
greeter then picks up this new user and doesn't check if it's a system
user.
