Title:
  Locking the screen over lxpanel results in an error

Bug description:
  I'm using Ubuntu 14.10 dev with lxde-common 0.5.0-4ubuntu4 and
  xscreensaver 5.26-1ubuntu1 and after upgrading xscreensaver from
  version 5.15 to 5.26 I'm noticing that locking over lxpanel does make
  some problems. Here is my panel entry:

  Plugin {
      type = launchbar
      Config {
          Button {
              id=lxde-screenlock.desktop
          }
          Button {
              id=lxde-logout.desktop
          }
      }
  }

  If I'm now clicking the "id=lxde-screenlock.desktop" button nothing
  happens for several seconds and then xscreensaver locks the screen but
  shows the error message "couldn't grab pointer (AlreadyGrabbed)" and
  mouse movements doesn't popup the input fields anymore (but the
  keyboard is still recognized). Using "xscreensaver-command -lock"
  manually works fine.
