I guess the disavantage is that you loose the "shutdown/reboot" button
if you don't use matching DM and login manager. Other than that, I
don't even know if it keeps running full time - probably just a
listener process (consuming minimal RAM), waiting to spawn the login
screen when session dies/gets closed.

This way for a GUI-way to shutdown/reboot you would have to logout,
and do it from the [GK]DM screen.
