  Screen does not lock when an unity indicator is open

Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Screen does not lock when a Unity indicator is open.

  [ Test Case ]

  1. Open an unity Indicator
  2. Close the laptop lid¹

  Expected behavior:
  3. The indicator menu should be closed and the screen is locked

  Actual behavior:
  3. The screen is not locked with the menu visible, it gets locked
      as soon as the menu is closed.

  [1] instead of this action, you can also run the script below just before opening an indicator:
    sleep 3 && gdbus call --session --dest com.canonical.Unity \
     --object-path /com/canonical/Unity/Session \
     --method com.canonical.Unity.Session.Lock

  [ Regression Potential ]

  Worst case is the lock screen still does not come up if an indicator
  is open, which could be a potential security problem.

  [ Other Info ]

  The fix for Ubuntu 14.04 LTS is cherry-picked from Ubuntu 14.10 where
  it has been in production use for some time without apparent
  regression.

  This is a special case of bug #49579, although this applies only to
  the unity indicators.
