[Bug 1294649] Re: lock screen focus on the desktop instead of password prompt
*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 1305586 ***

12.04 gnome-screensaver 3.4.1-0ubuntu1 has that bug. Maybe is the same
as #1175717 but 12,04 has no fixed release.

Title:
lock screen focus on the desktop instead of password prompt
Status in “gnome-screensaver” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
Occasionally the lock screen does not have focus, and the password
prompt does not show asterisks when inputting the password and
unlocking doesn't work. I've managed to get the focus back to the lock
screen and unlock successfully, and then noticed that a desktop
application has received the password entered in the lock screen when
no focus.
I've noticed that focus has been on the application that had focus
before locking the screen. Consider the consequences of this bug if
the focus is e.g. in an IRC client when inputting the password to lock
screen password prompt.
1) Ubuntu Trusty Tahr (development branch), release 14.04
2) gnome-screensaver (3.6.1-0ubuntu11), light-locker (1.2.1-0ubuntu1)
3) I expect that lock screen would have focus
4) Desktop (application) had the focus of the lock screen and it caught the password.
