GDM is getting a massive face lift to be more generic. The original
intent was to get KDE on board as well such that all you'd do is swap
toolkits and use the same backend. We've been trying to convince KDM
upstream to participate but I've heard there's been pushback because of
something dumb like we need to be bug for bug compatible with the
existing KDM, which is just not going to happen.
