[Bug 840208] [NEW] No Capslock indicator on password field

 

Public bug reported:

(This is reported against Oneric Beta 1). In previous versions of
Ubuntu, a warning would display if you had capslock enabled while
entering a password. This feature seems to be missing in lightdm (as
well as the screen locking mechanism, which may be the same). This
feature is particularly useful for those of use who have a combination
of 1) fat fingers and 2) stupid dell laptops that do not have a capslock
status led. Obviously, this is a feature request, and y'all are swamped
I'm sure, but it would be great if we could bring this feature back.
Thanks!
