LightDM won't scale large photo down for Default user image

I have a image that is 1593 x 2145.
I assigned it as my user image in LightDM

At login the image was not scaled down. It took more than the screen could show.

I blindly tabbed, typed pw, Enter, a few times until I got to the pw textbox.

Why doesn’t it scale down?

Looks like a bug.
