[Bug 1266464] Re: HUD "Super" and "Alt" shortcuts works through locked screen
The HUD project is just the back-end, it doesn't handle the user
interface at all.

Title:
HUD "Super" and "Alt" shortcuts works through locked screen
Status in Unity:
Confirmed
Status in “hud” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
To reproduce:
1. Lock screen (e.g. using Ctrl+Alt+L or corresponding option in menu).
2. Press Super (or Alt) key.
3. Enter password to unlock desktop.
Expected behaviour: nothing on desktop should be changed.
Observed behaviour: HUD menu pupped up, as if Alt or Super were pressed on desktop.
I mark this bug report as security issue, because not sure is Super
and Alt keys are only shortcuts that being passed to desktop, if other
keys can be passed to desktop in any way it would be possible to run
some command through HUD.
