Title:
  In Vivid Vervet, onscreen keyboard won't input to password/user fields

Status in onboard package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  X/Ubuntu 15:

  Onboard keyboard works fine in desktop environments, but will not pass
  input to user/password slots at login/resume screen.

  Clicking with a mouse OR tapping on a touchscreen does not work.
  Subsequently, when using a regular keyboard, after trying with
  onscreen keyboard, you must click into the password field again before
  input from regular keyboard is accepted.

  Suspect that focus is not being properly returned/shifted to the text
  input field by the keyboard, and the field itself is losing
  programmatic focus.
