[Marc Deslauriers <marc.deslauriers@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Steps to reproduce:

1- Lock screen with Ctrl-L or indicator menu
2- type random password
3- While password is being checked, press meta key
4- use correct password
5- Notice the dash is open, which means the meta key is being grabbed while the screensaver is active

I haven't been able to type anything, but others have successfully
managed to type stuff into the dash
