Title:
  HUD "Super" and "Alt" shortcuts works through locked screen

Status in Unity:
  Fix Committed
Status in “hud” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

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.
