How to unlock the login for the root?
In Ubuntu 14.xx and previous versions of Ubuntu, it was possible to log in to the graphical session as root. Now i can't do this anymore. How to unlock the root account?
One way i login to root is by rebooting in to the recovery mode, drop down to command-line login as root and execute startx.
Second way is by switching in to the Command-Line by pressing the Ctrl+Alt+F2 (F3, F4, F5...) keys, login as root and the executing the command startx
But i want to login with the normal login interface. It's a stupid feeling to hack your own computer ;-(

Display manager and desktop environment are independent: You can use any display manager with neon. As for why login as root: I am only pointing out an alternative, if you know all this then yes it is up to you. I regularly login to my containers as root, because I know I will reset them.
