There isn't any recommended requirement for lightdm to be included with budgie upstream.
You should be able to install whichever logon manager you would like to use. I don't think we should be dictating to everyone to use a specific logon manager with a "recommends" Possibly I could add a Suggests: lightdm and maybe other packages so we can have a one hit apt --install-suggests budgie-desktop Just need to know the complete minimal list of packages to install from a netinst to bring up a full graphical login. Let me know your thoughts.
