My computer has 2 seats. Each seat mostly is used by one person, for example, Seat 0 is used by Person 0. Person 1 uses Seat 0 occasionally. So I want LightDM to show the account of Person 0 chosen on Seat 0 in the GTK greater and to move the focus to the password field. For convenience. This solution http://askubuntu.com/a/59227/117043 does not work. I don't think that a default user should be configured in AccountsService because it has no concept of seats. (This is just my guess. AccountsService is undocumented.)

I see now that the greeter shows the user account chosen the last time. This partially solves my problem.

The GTK greeter remembers one user account for all seats. This is not what I need.
