---------------------------+-----------------------------------
 lightdm's guest session does a reasonable job of locking things down and
 keeping data ephemeral, and the guest session wrapper is configurable,
 allowing us to make use of the chroot.  Unfortunately in Trusty, enabling
 the guest session causes unfortunate interactions with indicator-applet
 and friends.  So we should revisit this in 15.x
