Since casper change: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/casper/1.395
"Set empty live user password on all flavours, this was previously gdm
specific."
sddm login to the live session is not possible. e.g. should the live
session user log out or restart X/sddm
In discussion @ https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues/751 it appears that
sddm does not support login with an empty password.
Focus of that discussion is more towards autologin when clicking a user
with a black password, but it is also clear that clicking login with no
password in the password box for a passwordless user will also fail.
