This will require pretty substantial rewrite (related to gtkme glue code) which might
break things. Before doing so I'd like to have something to break e. g. version with
some functionality working nice and stable so I can be sure that if something goes
wrong than I have to blame new code, not some hidden bug.

I see. Indeed I've thought of it as "safe default" option to get working session asap
regardless of all the greeter stuff.

If you mean that the content will be picked up by some process running under amnesia
user than /etc/gdm3/PostLogin/ is probably wrong location for that.

I'll digg more into ubiquity code as well - maybe it'll be faster solution.
