No need to test, I guess. By looking at the lightdm code (and the  
default lightdm.conf), you will notice that autologin-session is never  
parsed / used inside the lightdm code.

I also tested it yesterday, IIRC, before checking the code more  
thoroughly (and it did not work, of course).

Greets,
Mike
