Bug description:
  Ubuntu Touch will soon have/now has the ability to set a PIN/password
  for the user. If the password is set, we should provide some
  protection against brute force password guessing since many users will
  choose to use PINs rather than proper passwords. This is required for
  devices for RTM, but not for the traditional Ubuntu desktop.
