Yes, it is.  This CANNOT be implemented without changes to the kdm job; the
only thing that upstart can do is provide an abstraction that simplifies the
logic expressed within the kdm job.  Such refactoring might be nice, but
lightdm and gdm already have support for this without such refactoring, and
this bug report is a request that kdm implement the same logic as those
other display managers - logic that can easily be implemented by cut and
paste.

If the Kubuntu developers think this is an important feature to provide to
their users, they should implement it - not block on a new abstraction being
implemented first in upstart.
