No luck here (Xubuntu 14.04), what actually did fix the issue was
installing the latest stable release of lightdm-gtk-indicator from the
upstream ppa. This caused a few hiccups with the Greybird theme, but at
least the ghost sessions are gone without any kind of workaround.
This is a glaring red sign that neither lightdm nor upstart are the
appropriate packages for this issue, but lightdm-gtk-greeter is.
Anyone proficient with bzr willing to perform a bisect between 2.0.1
(ppa - working) and 1.8.5 (trusty-updates, not working)?

Bug description:
dm-tool lock starts a new lightdm greeter (for unlocking) and a new
logind session. After unlocking the greeter disappears, but the logind
session never closes. loginctl session status c24 reports something
like:
c24 - lightdm (103)
Since: Thu 2014-05-22 18:38:27 CEST; 30min ago
Leader: 7872
Seat: seat0; vc8
Display: :1
Service: lightdm-greeter; type x11; class greeter
State: closing
CGroup: systemd:/user/103.user/c24.session
└─7907 init --user --startup-event indicator-services-start
This results in an accumulation of stale lightdm sessions after using
e.g. a session locker for a while.
I get this issue on a freshly installed and fully updated Xubuntu
14.04.
