Public bug reported:

casper version 1.279

I was testing using the daily mythbuntu image for 08/29/11 and finding
that autologin is not properly setup.  This is because in the mythbuntu-
lightdm-theme package uploaded the night before, it now includes a
commented out line "#autologin-user=" to fix the sed command usage in
user-setup-apply used during ubiquity later on.

The casper hook 15autologin is checking for 'autologin-user' anywhere in
the lightdm conf meaning it will also match on commented out lines.
