Right, that was me forwarding it upstream :)

if you're talking about upstream's commit
8dbec8431d558b9d33adc987de2f7a58815589d4 by Ray Strode ("gui: drop
fallback greeter"), which references an upstream bug [0], that itself
was reverted in upstream commit 1732d1c22e88d6f05f5b5e234990ce68b0e59cc0 .

Is this just a "fallback greeter" issue?  how does the shell-based
greeter deal with disable-user-list=true ?
