 Another piece in mjg59's post is a critique of the amount of testing
 that a new software piece gets; we all know that new software
 introduces new bugs, no matter how talented the authors.  This is not
 to say that we shouldn't ever rewrite any software though.

 Across the lines, there is the question of evolution of the design;
 will lightdm be eventually be as complex as the othre dms?
