[LightDM] Lightdm-webkit-greeter help

[Robert Ancell]

Hi Floris,

Sorry for the delay.

I haven't done any major work with the webkit greeter myself for quite
some time and HTML/JS is not my forte so I'm probably not the best
person to give you an answer...

But I have seen a number of interesting WebKit based greeters out in
the wild so it does seem quite capable of doing clever stuff. I'm
pretty sure it should do HTML5, it's probably possible to use plugins,
but might need some work in the greeter to enable them.

Anyone on this list who's doing Webkit greeter work who knows better than me?
