This module allows root autoLogin, so we would break that for users, but
they shouldn't be using it anyways. This gives the impression like auto
is some special display manager, when it's just lightdm and special pam
rules to allow root autoLogin. It was created for NixOS's testing
so I believe this is where it belongs.
The upstream session files display managers use have no concept of sessions being composed from
desktop manager and window manager. To be able to set upstream session files as default
session, we need a single option. Having two different ways to set default session would be confusing,
though, so we decided to deprecate the old method.
We also created separate script for each session, just like we already had a separate desktop
file for each one, and started using displayManager.sessionPackages mechanism to make the
session handling more uniform.
The build error has been introduced by 56dcc319cf.
Using a <simplesect/> within a <para/> is not allowed and subsequently
fails to validate while building the manual.
So instead, I moved the <simplesect/> further down and outside of the
<para/> to fix this.

I'm not 100% sure about the incompatibility lines,
but I believe it's better to discourage these anyway.
If you find better information, feel free to amend...
The 32-bit thing is completely GPU-agnostic, so I can't see why we had
it separately for proprietary drivers and missing for the rest.
