Title:
  lock screen bypass with open terminal

Status in “unity” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  In order to reproduce:

  Open a Terminal
  Press CTRL+ALT+L to lock the screen
  right click the indicators some times
  type and you will enter into the terminal not the password field

  The easiest way to reproduce this is to play some music with mplayer
  in the terminal. If you can stop the music, skip a song etc. with your
  keys press CTRL+c to quit mplayer. Now you can type whatever you want
  and it will be executed.

  This probably affects other Programs. I can even switch the terminal
  with the default shortcuts.
