Need to allow for both Unity 8 desktop "bare metal" and LXC sessions

This bug was fixed in the package lightdm - 1.11.6-0ubuntu1

---------------
lightdm (1.11.6-0ubuntu1) utopic; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release:
    * Add a seat option 'allow-user-switching' that can disable all user
      switching for that seat
    * Add a new session type 'mir-container' that allows the session to run
      inside a custom system compositor (LP: #1359332)
    * Only seat0 takes VT from Plymouth
    * Removed unused GAsyncResultIface.is_tagged as this attribute was not
      available in earlier versions of Glib I/O.
    * Abort autogen if yelp-tools not installed
    * Return correct errors for D-Bus calls

Thanks for uploading the fix for this bug report to -proposed. However, when reviewing the package in -proposed and the details of this bug report I noticed that the bug description is missing information required for the SRU process. You can find full details at http://wiki.ubuntu.com/StableReleaseUpdates#Procedure but essentially this bug is missing some of the following: a statement of impact, a test case and details regarding the regression potential. Thanks in advance!

Hello Christopher, or anyone else affected,

Accepted unity8-desktop-session into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity8-desktop-session/1.0.10+14.04.20140915-0ubuntu1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification . Thank you in advance!

Verified this seems to work with unity-desktop-session-mir version 1.0.10+14.04.20140915-0ubuntu1 on Trusty.
