I tested the new gdm.conf, and confirm that
a) GDM doesn't start in recovery mode
b) GDM does start if I "telinit 2" from a recovery mode shell

However, (b) is not particularly helpful, because it still doesn't work
if I choose the "Resume" option from the Recovery Menu.

All the "Resume" option does is exit.  From 
/usr/share/recovery-mode/recovery-menu:
  if [ "$choice" = "resume" ]; then
    exit
  fi

So it's possible that once this is fixed, a bug should be opened against
"friendly-recovery" to have it run telinit 2 instead of  just "exit"
