    ------------------------------------------------------------------------ d/greeter.dconf-defaults: Disable smartcard authentication by default

    Enabling smartcard authentication has side-effects on other aspects of
    greeter behaviour if a compatible smartcard happens to be connected:
    in particular, it disables the user list, resulting in users being
    required to type their username to log in.

    Enrolling smartcards to be used for authentication requires sysadmin
    action, so it seems reasonable to require the sysadmin to take action
    to enable it after they have done the necessary enrolment step.

    Closes: #1051785 ------------------------------------------------------------------------
