We're currently working around this issue with the merges done by Laércio. So now we need to disallow user switching but still be able to return to a greeter on logout.

Switch to greeter should be always allowed on logout. NOTE: This was observed in LightDM 1.10.2 on Ubuntu 14.04, but I guess it also happens on trunk series.
