[Bug 719815] Re: Please backport gdm and language-selector to Lucid and Maverick

Natty's language-selector won't work in lucid/maverick, as this was
moved from pygtk2 to python gobject-introspection. This needs a custom
upload then.

natty's gdm should work fine on lucid/maverick (I haven't tested it,
though).

I don't think that this is a feature which is very important to have on
a stable release; people who have used those for a long time already
will have learned how to deal with the situation, and it actually brings
some intrusive changes (for example, LC_MESSAGES will be exported
through ssh and cause a lot of locale problems on remote sites). But
that shouldn't preclude a backport, of course.
