Of note is the fact that the new GDM loads up the default desktop 
wallpaper and it seems that a fancy wallpaper with animations and 
effects would really slow down the GDM load time which is not a nice 
user experience since the whole system feels slow at that point. If my 
guess is right, keeping the wallpaper very simple is the way to go.
