When I reported this bug I'd just had it with a prompt for an account
password from e-d-s.

Title:
  Lock screen is unusable when a ssh dialog has a keyboard/mouse grab

Status in Unity:
  Triaged
Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  My screen just timed out and locked when a password prompt which had a
  grab was displaying.

  I couldn't type my password or interact with the indicators.

  gnome-screensaver just refuses to lock in this situation, perhaps
  unity could do the same unless it's possible to remove and readd the
  grabs yourself, but I don't think XLib lets you do that (you can only
  remove your own grabs AFAIK).
