In other words, yes, it does mean what I said.

Which is what I'm currently doing and want to fix. The whole point of
having it start automatically is that it gets the key from the login
password (assuming they are the same), so the user doesn't have to type
it twice. Starting it manually (or via an autostart script) doesn't do
this.

Guess I'll go back to KDM, but how long is it going to be maintained?
