Bug Description
If there is only one login session type available on the system, lightdm doesn't present you with the gear to configure your choice; it just logs you in to whatever is currently configured in .dmrc. This is a problem if the reason you only have one login session type is if you've *removed* one, and the .dmrc for the user you're trying to log in as points to a no-longer-existing session type.
If only one session type is present and the user's .dmrc points to a different session type, the existent session type should be used instead.
