systemd creates "dynamic users". These accounts should be hidden from login screen. But it's possible that systemd creates them with id > 1000 and shell == "/sbin/nologin". Currently lightdm shows these accounts if AccountService is not installed. See: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=238704 To fix this, add "/sbin/nologin" to ignored shells.
