SEUL: XDM loop-o-death

[Cyberdyn <cyberdyn@seul.org>]

Ok, folks.  The dreaded loop-o-death has been vanquished from my system for
good.

In addition I have added a little checking that will intercept an X session
that appeared to end in disaster for the user and throw them into a recovery
we need to come up with at some point, a fail-safe mode.  As opposed to a
fail-safe session.

It was easy beans.  I almost hate to devulge it, it was that easy.

See, many of you keep arguing that the complexity of Linux makes it impossible
to stop the loop-o-death.  It was the versatility of Linux, a result of the
complexity, that made it just that simple.  I don't have a clue why nobody
hasn't implemented this before.

So, what's the next argument against dropping a user into XDM?
