After two full days of parsing debug logs of all possible GNOME
components and looking at all the wrong things, I've now solved
#7633/#7673 with a one byte patch in Tails Greeter (commit 1189bd4)...

Lots of fonts look different in feature/jessie builds, which makes this
into a lot more work (especially since it will be obsoleted again once
we move from GNOME flashback to GNOME Classic), so I created #7882 as a
blocker. Furthermore, even though we get into a GNOME session now, lots
of basic things are broken, and I suspect a major cause is #7881.

Any quick clues on these two bugs would be appreciated!

Done, and it looks pretty ok.

Cheers!
