Title:
  Guest Session is destroyed despite not explicitly logging out

Status in lightdm package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu release: 15.04

  Using: Asus laptop

  Upon starting a Guest Session the user sees the following warning
  message:

  http://i.stack.imgur.com/YmG1M.png

  "All data created during this session will be deleted when you log
  out, and settings will be reset to defaults"

  If the use closes the laptop lid, the user is logged out of their
  session, hence destroying all their data.

  This is a bug because by closing the laptop screen, it is not the
  user's INTENTION to abandon the session. The guest session data should
  only be erased if the user expressly switches or closes the session by
  clicking "Log out" or suchlike in the interface.

  I think a good enhancement would be to repeat the warning message if
  the user attempts to close or switch session.
