I don't remember the whole list of functionality missing when last I
checked sddm or lightdm, but at the top of the list I distinctly remember
missing remained the ability to specify a list of specific users to be
*included* in the greeter's userlist.
That's something that only kdm can do as far as I'm aware.
Who is sddm's upstream?
