AFAIK the automatic login feature allows you to nominate a user to automatically log in as... it doesn't ask for the password but I think one can be set (so it doesn't need to be empty). Automatic login is a security risk in its self, the cracker is already one step closer. It is all controlled through gdmsetup.
