Bug#681244: gdm3: Should have a "use ~/.xsession" option

[Matthew Vernon]

Package: gdm3
Version: 3.4.1-2
Severity: important

Hi,

gdm3 should ship a .desktop file that runs the users ~/.xsession ; 
lightdm does, and the file they provide (contents reproduced below) 
would be just fine.

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Default Xsession
Exec=default
Icon=
Type=Application

Thanks,

Matthew
