The result of the tests CanSuspend, CanHibernate, CanReboot and
CanPowerOff, and possibly the cause of the result when it isn't
"yes". I can't see them in D-Bus monitoring. Or perhaps I'm doing
something wrong.
There could be a debug mode in the conf files, just like what
gdm3 has, e.g. from /etc/gdm3/daemon.conf:
[debug]
# More verbose logs
# Additionally lets the X server dump core if it crashes
Enable = true
After some new tests, it appears that libpam-systemd is needed too to
make the bug appear with lightdm. But to make it disappear, removing
libpam-systemd only is not sufficient: I also need to remove systemd
(but rebooting might be another solution, I haven't tried). Note that
even after removing systemd, /lib/systemd/systemd-logind is still
running.
With libpam-systemd installed, using
gdbus monitor --system --dest org.freedesktop.login1
I can see org.freedesktop.login1.Manager.SessionNew lines, but the
sessions are removed only when I log in again. So, when I log out,
there's always a session active. Here's how it looks like:

When I remove systemd, though logind is still running, I no longer
get SessionNew and SessionRemoved lines. That's probably why the bug
disappears.
This leaves 2 questions:
1. Why isn't the session removed when I log out?
Something related to /etc/X11/Xsession* configuration?
Note that I have the default.
/etc/X11/Xsession is run via session-wrapper=/etc/X11/Xsession
in /usr/share/lightdm/lightdm.conf.d/01_debian.conf
2. Why, apparently due to this session problem, only 2 menu items
over the 4 ones disappear?

I agree, but the Debian installer would have to be changed to drop
GNOME entirely (anyway, if GNOME breaks without systemd-sysv, this
will happen).
