Bug Description

The shell rotation branch removed properties that the greeter relies on to determine if it should load wide/narrow view. Since the property was removed, the conditions always evaluate to false and only the NarrowView greeter can be loaded.

Hmm. It does load the wide greeter on the Nexus7 tablet. On which environment are you testing this?

@mzanetti I'm not sure what I was using when I reported this (thought it was trunk). While I see that WideView should load, it _does_ check for tabletMode || multiUser when determining which view to load. Currently, nobody is setting the tabletMode property. Perhaps this is still a bug, just a very small one that currently doesn't show any symptoms? If https://code.launchpad.net/~dandrader/unity8/fixOrientedShellTests/+merge/262490 gets merged, it should resolve this issue and make things more clear as well.
