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).

  TEMPORARY WORKAROUND TO LOGIN AGAIN:
  Click on the guest session
  Once the guest session is started log out
  This takes you back to the lightdm session screen you can then login to your user session and it be in the same state
