To elaborate on the point I'm trying to make, having spent a bit of time
looking in to this specific issue, I don't think it's worth blocking the
gnome-team merge over an issue with running the lightdm testsuite.
Obviously if there's actually an issue with lightdm, then that's
different. This is also somewhat personal since I've got almost no
knowledge about lightdm or the dbus problems I suspect might be related.
