Bug#575008: gdm: Changes background twice when logging in; not seamless

Package: gdm
Version: 2.20.10-1
Severity: normal
With the default gdm settings, after logging in, two separate changes
occur to the background. First, the gdm theme disappears, and the gdm
background color shows up. Second, the user's background color or
background replaces the gdm background color. This seems like one more
transition than necessary; gdm should go directly from its theme to the
user's background.
