Simply that gdm-guest-session isn't even included in the Ubuntu archive any longer.

A few cycles ago the guest session feature was provided by gdm-guest-session, but now that code is included in lightdm instead, and it's unlikely that the fix of this bug will be backported to stable releases with gdm-guest-session.

Only that. I do agree with you that it's important that this design flaw is fixed soon, whether you consider it to be a "wishlist" bug or not.
