Another use case for allowing connections from lightdm is where Ubuntu won't boot into a desktop (it happens!) and you want to switch to a tty console and access the internet (eg to run upgrades) but you have no ethernet card. In this case it's a huge pain if you can't connect to the wireless network from lightdm.
