So I'm not alone...

Perhaps I didn't express clear enough.
With lightdm I had the problem (as you confirmed you had too)
With gdm I don't have the problem at all


I found that the culprit is the RPM pam-kwallet-5.12.5-3.fc27: if you

I can try and verify if it is the same for my environment

In the mean time I took the occasion to switch back again to gdm as DM and
gnome-session as DE
I have to say that it seems more usable and less cpu consuming as in the
time when I abandoned it (especially gnome-shell process that often became
mad...)
Also, after disabling tracker related things (see the other thread), it
seems to me that all in all this configuration in F28 on my laptop (Asus
U36SD) consumes less (battery lasts more) than the previous
F27+lightdm+Mate DE
I will continue to test and eventually switch again if not satisfied.
The important is to preserve the power of choice and ability to change if
needed ;-)

Indeed!

Thanks for your comments and help
