Title:
  when logging in the cursor does not show up in the password area.
  There is no indication you are in the pw area.

Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I updated to the 11.10 beta and when went to log in and type my
  password I expected that when I clicked in the password area that
  something such as a cursor blinking or something would alert or
  indicate the area was active and I could type my password. I just
  started typing it and it showed up but it wasn't very intuitive. Can
  you add a blinking cursor or something to the box when you click in it
  to let the user know that's where their cursor is?
