--- Comment #1 from Daniel Tameling <tamelingdaniel@gmail.com> ---
This is a problem of lightdm. It doesn't look at /etc/login.conf at all;
somebody would have to patch it to do that. 

However, there is a patch-src_session-child.c that adds the default path from
login.conf. But it doesn't do the tilde expansion, so one ends up with a path
containing a literal ~/bin, which is probably not what was intended.
